WHAT DID YOU MAKE TODAY?

  • Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
A mess... let me explain..

We seldom use our front door which is situated (offset) within a 6'x3' 'vestibule'. This area has of late become a dumping ground for all my tools, decorating stuff, odds n sods etc (leaving access to the door for emergency purposes of course).

I've decided to turn the 3'x3' portion into a work/craft area into which I can fit my jewellers bench, a stool, and shelving above to hold some of my most required tools and one or two other bits such as my meat grinder, sausage stuffer, bacon slicer etc. So everything has been pulled out and stacked none too neatly in the living room while I

A: Give the area a good clean
B: Decorate it
C: Build the shelving (out of some lovely reclaimed oak flooring)
D: Decide what's going on the shelving and which can go upstairs into the loft.

The house currently looks like a bombs hit it, oh well, should be back to normal by next weekend hopefully :D

I was curious about this kolrosing that @Wayland mentioned in another post, so I thought I'd test it out on a bit of antler.

It was only a very quick test, so not a particularly inspiring design, just wanted to see how it works. When I get more time, I'll try something a bit more involved.

On a side note, the smell of cinnamon and beeswax together is pretty good.
