Wood is my material, hand cut with axe and knife (my first love)and noisy dusty electric tools.

I want to learn more about traditional wood crafts from around the world, for example fan birds, shrink pots, animated toys and puzzles

Devious Info

  • Tools of the Trade: axe and knife, but not always

Hi
Well lets just say use a soft wood like basswood or tulip and boil, put in a vice and squeeze, bang through hole and soak in warm water again, then carve!

Have not yet got around to doing my workshop dates etc this year
