Thanks for all the compliments. So far it's only the smaller stuff that's sold, but it's got a wee while left. And I just love woodworking anyway.

Nick, the Oak and Beech staffs are actually really light! They were already very seasoned when I got them and they're a lot lighter than I tend to go for, but the are nice and sturdy. Here's a close up of the top of the Oak one for you.




For the rest of you, here's the best I can do showing you the carvings.










I used coconut oil on it, Vmac. I'm planning to get some Linseed oil soon, though!


And, just because I am amazed, here is a picture of the surprise package I received from Diane's Granny today.




She's not doing woodworking anymore so sent me all her stuff!!!!
I had to leave all mine behind in Scotland and now look! I am very, very lucky!
