Well, since the storm pulled down a black locust tree (robinia pseudoacacia) not farm from my house, I got a big chunk of it to make a kuksa.
I've sawn a chunk from the branch, and stripped off the bark before putting it in a ziplock bag with about 1/4 pint of water yesterday.
All that water has dissappeared into the wood, so I added another 1/4 pint today...
I'm going to start hollowing out the bowl, before shaping the outside...
