Yup sure thing. I've got some fuel in now. Just enough to keep these ticking over but goodness me I hate cheap charcoal.

I've bashed out three so far this morning, just stopping for lunch. I'll get the other five done this afternoon then it will be a mammoth filing and shaping session before heat treatment and sharpening.

Cheers

Right, I think I've sent my PayPal details to everyone but send me a nudge if I haven't. Five of the awls I made yesterday have been heat treated and are ready to go. I made a few more today as well, which will need the shape/sharpen etc tomorrow.

I'm going to investigate making my own charcoal tonight. Shop bought stuff is just awful and the supplier I buy the proper stuff from is a two hour round trip. I need to sort something out.

Cheers

If course Dave. The rain has well and truly stopped play for the time being but yours will be made as soon as I can.
