Kuksas

[Hugo]

I made another kuksa yesterday from a small ash burr that was given to me by PeterT at the Sussex meet, here it is on the left alongside the other two that I have carved this week.
The one on the right I am going to gift to someone who deserves it, the one on the left I shall use myself and SHMBO has nabbed the other one for herself.
They need time to dry out before getting some oil to bring out the lovely grain, one needs a touch more wood taken away to make the handle a shade bigger.
Enjoy.

lovely work Hugo, i can imagine how the oil will bring out all the detail. oh and that little whittler i had off you is doing me proud too.

now they are stunning in the extreme - nice one H

 

[Kepis]

I'll even make you a cup of tea to go in it

Thanks fellas for the comments, glad you both like the whittlers that you brought from me.
I used mine to carve these after the axe work and a Ben Orford spoon knife.

Nice work on the Kuksa's! I like the one on the left, I like the handle shape.

Great work, they're all good but I think the middle one is the winner. Looking forward to seeing them oiled up.
