Moved to a new place and have yet to set my workshop up as it needs a new roof. Waiting for the weather to pick up a bit before I put on a new roof then I can get a new caul made and set up some kind of tillering tree, not to mention putting in some kind of stove (brrrr Scotland can be chilly). With the few remaining staves that travelled with me from Germany I’m going back to basics. Axe, rasp and scraper, so far have one floor tillered Pear wood self-bow ready for a long string and just axed out two new Sloe (Prunus Spinosa) staves. I also knocked up a bench to sit on.
