Hi there guys, I have for sale a brand new never been used or opened Ice Bear synthetic waterstone purchased from Axminster tools, this will come with the anti skid foot.
Selling for £42 inc P&P
Paypal prefered.
Many thanks
Loving the work there, still not convinced by the loveless bolts though, why those and not Corby bolts? Is it a look thing or is there another reason that you used them?
Thanks guys, the tools that I use are a set of Flexcut chisels, did start with a set of eBay cheapies for my first one but soon found them not up to the task, and my own custom little neck knife.
@woodspirit, I wad very inspired by your fantastic tutorial, need to do some more work on noses...
After taking a lot of insperation from you guys I have been a little busy knocking up some woodspirit's, would be very happy for you guys to let me know what you think.
I rehandled one of these for a lady deer stalker who had broken the handle, not quite sure how, but I rehandled in burr elm for her and had to re-grind the tip which she also broke off.
Just waiting on her returning it broken again, she really puts her blades through the mill.
I harvest my sticks in winter and then store flat in racks in the garage roof. I then leave them for 18 months until they are fully season them, straighten them in a steam pipe to achieve the level of straightness that I require. I then trim the straightened sticks to a rough length longer...
Thanks guys, sticks are my favourite thing to make, but I will turn my hand to anything given half a chance. I probably make about 50ish sticks a year mostly just for fun.
Here's another one that I finished today.
Thought that I would have a go at the Opinel re-handle today, there's a couple of things that I will do differently next time.
