Thank you Gareth, I'm fairly sure she will be pleased with it  :)

I wet formed the suede but it was still too floppy so I melted some wax with a hot air gun, it's better now but I might try adding more  :-\

I heard a noise in the kitchen earlier  :think:

R2D2 was getting busy with the domestic droid,  :o

 :think:  which is odd as I always thought he was AC not AC/DC   :shrug:

Ah well,  Merry Christmas little Droids   :drink:

Billhook shaped knife with some  :think: ummm 'brown wood'



Needs some Micarta







Love my knife vice  :tu:



Add some brass





Add some linseed oil (still needs a sharpen)



It looks good here but to be honest some of the glue lines are not great  :-[
