Bushcraft, camping, tinkering, carving, whittling, forging, and whatever else I feel like trying! Saturday, November 16, 2013. I'm meeting with the owner of this awesome Homestead museum sometime this week to see about volunteering and possibly working in his blacksmith shop! If all else fails I'll get to do a little historic preservation work, something I've always been interested in. Http:/ www.ohiofarmmuseum.com/. On a sadder note, I had a 200 year old Mousehole anvil slip through my fingers last week.

Bushcraft, camping, tinkering, carving, whittling, forging, and whatever else I feel like trying! Wednesday, July 16, 2014. Meet my nephew, Kemper Patrick Bernel. I made him a growth chart for his 1st Birthday. 6' by 10" poplar. At first I used my table saw to rip this angle into the face all the way down, to mimic a ruler, but i was unhappy with it and cut it off. Marking out the inch and foot marks. Always happy when I can use my spokeshave. Works wonders on rounding over edges. Miss you, buddy. Simple...

Bushcraft, camping, tinkering, carving, whittling, forging, and whatever else I feel like trying! Monday, December 30, 2013. With all the Holiday time off I finally got to spend some time in the workshop! Beautiful slabs of cherry that I picked up at an estate sale. Decided to make a small bench for my brother for Christmas. Figured I would mortise and tenon on some rustic legs made from branches. Here I began chiseling. New plan, drill out some 1-1/2" round mortises. Here is leg #1. We're on track again.

Bushcraft, camping, tinkering, carving, whittling, forging, and whatever else I feel like trying! Thursday, August 22, 2013. Signing up for a blacksmithing class in Zoar Ohio! 59 The Village Blacksmith. A spreading chestnut tree. The village smithy stands;. The smith, a mighty man is he,. With large and sinewy hands;. And the muscles of his brawny arms. Are strong as iron bands. His hair is crisp, and black, and long,. His face is like the tan;. His brow is wet with honest sweat,. For he owes not any man.

Bushcraft, camping, tinkering, carving, whittling, forging, and whatever else I feel like trying! Monday, March 10, 2014. A bunch of stuff that happened over the last month or so. So, the knife a made a few posts back had a little problem. After talking to Keith, he educated me on the fact that if my pin holes aren't perfectly aligned the scales will split. I eventually removed the old scales, and drilled a new hole for the front pin. Some new stuff around the shop. Another new addition, small Craftsman ...
