I wanted another Kuksa a bit bigger than the one i have been using for the past few years ,I cut this birch on sunday and roughed it out in the wood ,Not nearly finished i will let it dry out in a plastic bag i think this is what u do?I will put some pics up when all the fine carving and sanding is done ,i intend to put Reindeer antler in the rebated bit on the handle(Thank you Biker)Hopefully it wont split .
