Birch Bird




More rain means more time in the shed no point in getting wet just for the sake of it. A friend gave me a lump of birch which I can make into many things ,the first was a quick spoon then a narrow bowl with a birds head and tail on the ends just a trial at the moment. It cut and carved quite easily if it dries without splitting I will get to finish it. And here's the little kuska cup now finished, that I made a few posts back at the time I thought it was lyme but I know think the timber is alder what do you think ? :)
