Well I had put some wood away and the sun wash shining the other day so out came the shave horse and draw knife and what I thought would be 2 hrs work turned into 5hrs.

Elm crotch wood and oak legs. Finished with walnut oil, meths and a wee drop o' terabine to help drying.
I cheated slightly and used a flap disc on the grinder to take down the outside of the elm and the cut face after the chainsaw.
Still having problems with my 1" brace and bit tearing out at the good side when at an angle for the legs. Any advice?
thanks for looking.
