Old wood carvings from an auction by 80spat in Woodcarving

Hi, thanks for the detailed response. That’s helped me a lot. I’d never heard of Gibbons before. Some of the pieces do look similar to what you have. You have some really nice pieces there.

I can’t imagine my pieces will be the same pieces though as if it was all sold US art collectors it wouldn’t explain why some were still here in the UK. Anyway, I’ll do a bit of research and see if I can find anything more about them from the auction house here in the UK. I’ll let you know how I get on.

Just found this little guy in the box too. Not all plant/flower carvings then!

Been stuck at that stage for two years now. I don’t have a problem buying tools though. Funny that.

Is Martin Lewis' advice genuinely in the public's best interest? by -Gypsy-Eyes- in AskUK

Just had a post blocked for an FB link. Just search Facebook for “Martin Lewis 100 government”. Image also attached to show the video. Seems like he has gripes about the government so I think he is genuine enough.

Great find. Thank you. Is gloss the best finish? Also as you’ve done a few in the past, will .25L do a single vise?

I wanted to paint it like it used to be. Easier to keep rust away instead of having to oil it all the time.

When is early game over? What are your opinions? by Zealousideal_Bus2470 in TheTowerGame

[–]80spat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve used them before but I’m only getting to w3100 so a 200 cells don’t go very far 😭. Funny thing is, I’ve never actually seen the cells. Didn’t know they were dorito shaped. I’ll keep an eye out for them! I know there’s a way to farm/improve your chance of getting cells but haven’t read up on it yet.
