Was making good progress on my first kuksa:
It's made from some nicely spalted birch which I thought was seasoned OK. Came back to it today to find it had a big crack in it:
The wood around the crack is rock hard & almost impossible to carve:
Oh well, back to the beginning again! Should have sealed it in a bag to stop it drying out so much...
