Yet another wool blanket..Well a throw really. Only £2.00 this time. It was in the dog blanket box. A bit wiffy! But a good hand wash has solved that problem. (Bit of a wrestle, but I managed it)
It's Scottish wool.
Just hope I can get it properly dry now the weather is not so warm and sunny.
 
I just bought a large sheet of cow leather and a smaller piece of what was told was camel leather. In Morocco, where the price was very cheap in comparison to home. Would nearly be cheaper to fly out to buy leather, and I didnt even go to the really cheap tanneries.

After getting para cord and making a handles for my canteens every key in the house mysteriously sprouted new handmade key fobs…. Just a coincidence.

Earlier this week.... a Forestmaster vertical axe (log splitting thingumybob). Install on chopping block, place wood, lift axe/weight, drop, repeat. Managing to split a bunch of old logs that were here when we moved in and which had proved resistant to my bext efforts with a "normal" axe (suspect they were left as the previous owner couldn't split them either). Hopefully it has a level of longevity, only time will tell- looks quite sturdy. It is still something of an upper body work-out, but way more effective for the effort level than a normal axe.

Should take delivery today of some cans of WD-40 specialist- spray grease (for my SGS hammer drill and to coat my vertical chipping axe) and dry lube (for locks).
