More carvingmania from the early 1980s. These were going to be bolo tie slides. #whittling #archaeology
one of my partner's favourite neighborhood trees, a California buckeye, was cut down a month or so ago and I wanted to make her a little fetish out of the salvaged wood to memorialize it. buckeye, it turns out, is very fibrous and hard to work with, but I am pretty happy with this jackrabbit.
A whittle TARDIS.
The hard part of something like this is pushing through to a final product even if I'm a little unhappy with it instead of just immediately giving up as soon as I fuck up.
Birch wood spirit. Branch was a bit dry and tough, and I've been out of action so my hands are feeling weaker than they were when I was doing one of these a day, but it came out really nice.

reminder I like to make little wooden stuff, because I live in a forest surrounded by trees
I'm looking for someone who whittles (edit: or does wood carving, apparently they're different things!) I'd like to buy a small figurine of a sleeping bear, from within EU. I'm having trouble finding someone who *makes* that kind of thing on Etsy, and doesn't just sell it. So, anybody know anybody? #DanskerTrut #whittling #woodworking
