Ok, while I wait for some leather to make a knife sheaf, I thought I would have a go at making a wooden bowl.....So up to the shed, out with the chainsaw, one bit of seasoned, but damp cherry wood, I start by taking a slice off of it. (I am no expert on this and could be making loads of mistakes, ie grain going in the wrong direction etc, but hey ho....I am a bit worried that the wood is damp, and may split when done, so I am going to dry it out as slowly as poss....
Slice is taken off the side, then its out with the axe. I havent given my GB mini much use yet so I use that one.....
I start to hack away at it to make it bowl shaped...
Its now roughly bowl shaped, so I mark a circle on the top and bottom...
more chopping and its taking shape now....
That will do for now after about 1 hours work...
Will put up more when I next get back onto it....
