Some things I make and ideas I have. Monday, 4 March 2013. I feel guilty so must put it too rest. I started this blog for many reasons,. But to share and document my making was the primary. So now I am packing my life into boxes, to move into rented,. While I do up a shell of a house (and workshop). I wonder.what have I got to go on the blog now? For example everything you see on the wall in this image. Has all gone now, bare as a baby's bum it is. I was a dedicated smoker for many years. I do not need.

Some things I make and ideas I have. Wednesday, 16 April 2014. Went for a walk - found a branch, carried it home. Sat in the sun, made a Ladle. Its all just a bit of fun really. Have a go - its quick, fun and useful. Get your knives out. This is my favourite spoon so far. I just had to go and cook / eat with it straight away! What to do with a large crack. I forgot I even had done this,. Did this a very long time ago - its one way of turning. A crack into a feature! Green Woodwork and Turning. Great idea...

Some things I make and ideas I have. Friday, 27 March 2015. 3D Printing interlocking knot. It is so much easier prototyping with a 3D Printer.

http://berinsblog.blogspot.com/2015/03/100-years-old-100-spoons-to-make.html
Some things I make and ideas I have. Friday, 27 March 2015. 100 years old, 100 spoons to make. My nan was 100 years old recently. For some reason I then decided I would carve 100 spoons. Some kind of celebration or punishment I am not sure. My mum cut down one of her apple trees,. So they are all Apple or Birch. Sometimes I see potential in the fire wood,. For that is where all my birch comes from! I am up to about 40 at the moment. Is just being silly - so my Bandsaw has started to help me rough out now.

Berin's Blog: February 2014
http://berinsblog.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Some things I make and ideas I have. Tuesday, 18 February 2014. So here we go - first carving project - new house. I had to use the Island unit I made for the kitchen as my workbench! I hand planed 4 Oak planks to make the top - from rough sawn! Hours of hard work, but it keeps me fit and got me back into the routine. I made this up a lot as I went - not having carved a sign (or letters) before. I moved the 'S' as I was not happy with its placement - then regretted afterwards! Add 4 coats of yacht varnish.

Some things I make and ideas I have. Friday, 3 April 2015. I only managed 4 spoons today. Getting to 50 is my next target. I was quite pleased considering I had both my sons all day! I like letting the spoons carve themselves. I am sure many of you understand EXACTLY what I mean! These are used everyday by the family,. So live next to the dining room table. My favourite story about teaching my youngest to carve:. Now you must not carve towards yourself,. I have told you already that is dangerous,.

Some things I make and ideas I have. Thursday, 24 January 2013. One of the worlds biggest treehouses. This is a 6,000 square foot tree house and has walkways, cottages, shops, and even a restaurant, it can hold about 1,000 people and went I went back to Newcastle (spent about 10 years there growing up, school etc) my old mate Giles took me to play there. In 2005 I think it was the worlds biggest? It was such a cool day out. Alnwick Garden in Northumberland. Where are you now Giles? A big walk in the wood...
