Book rec'd, many thanks 👍

I'd like the Norwegian wood book please. I'll PM my address.

An interesting thread, before leaving have a read of Robin Woods article about the traditional Scottish quaich as it's not such an odd design, in fact I think I'll give turning one a try. https://www.robin-wood.co.uk/wood-craft-blog/2011/01/25/quaichs-the-real-history-of-the-wooden-quaich/

I will re-read @deema link later but I've just finished restoring a tenon saw. My biggest mess up was to not free up the screw heads. Over time they get bedded into the wood of the handle. When you then push them out it spews out the face of the handle. I'm sure it can be avoided but be careful...

Welcome from another Hampshire Hog, try @Myfordman he may be able to help. Bob is local and has been very helpful to me in the past with equipment issues.

Letter carving is really intriguing and challenging, I think I've been bitten by the bug 😲 !!!

Satisfying to have completed my first attempt at letter carving 😎 and the workshop is slowly improving from it's disorganised chaos.

I'm interested & will message you.

It's a great TV drama, but how the PO were able to take staff to courts for prosecution without reference to the police or CPS is beyond belief, that's got to be changed.

That looks great, I'm still moving kit around and organising my workshop I built during lockdown !!
