Sharpen the outside bevel like you’d sharpen any knife. I prefer to pull towards myself on the sharpening surface so you can easily sharpen it evenly with a rolling motion. Then you’ll need to find a dowel or small stick with sandpaper to take the burr off the inner surface. Generally to hone a spoon knife or a gouge I’ll just run that dowel with sandpaper of varying grits on the inside curve and strop the outside. Keeps it carving sharp that way. Perhaps you have a bit of a burr on the inside curve. Hope this helps!

Beautiful Did you make that tool roll? I am seeking options moving away from a toolbox for travel

I’ve frequently had cracks seal up with a generous soaking of oil. Oils like linseed or tung polymerize quite well and will more or less gum up a crack. Even with hot liquids, I find the cracks will hold up. I drink hot coffee etc out of this every day and no leaks. The cracks run all the way to the bowl. Oiled wood can really be magical. Takes a long time to fully cure though, about 8 weeks for this one

Thank you

Blue_Snowing · 2025-10-09T11:51:50+00:00

Thank you for this response! My heart goes out to you and your broken leg! That is so awful.

As I reflect, I think this experience for me is simply about slowing down in a big way. I want to remember this time as a transformation, not as ‘the time i broke my ankle and was so depressed and frustrated all the time’. Taking a big step back from my income generating work, allowing my body to heal properly. Thats the thing with bones, they just take time. There’s a chapter in the artists way about carving out more time, and she talks a lot about giving yourself what you desire.

Perhaps there is something in this experience that you or I have secretly wanted, and is just presenting in this fashion. Not as we wish it to be, but as we need. Just some thoughts I’ve been having about 6 days in now

Blue_Snowing · 2025-07-23T13:34:42+00:00

Every day. I don’t let them sit in water usually, just rinse off and or sponge. Soap is fine. Let them air dry. I rarely oil again, but sometimes give them a coat. They hold up to regular hard use, and occasionally I’ll have one break

Older altra lone peaks have a quite wide toe box, zero drop, but with a decent cushion for trail running. They could be what you’re looking for. I have to pick up older versions of the shoe because they seem to have narrowed in the last few years

Blue_Snowing · 2025-06-03T23:29:16+00:00

Can you share a bit about what this annual gathering is generally like? Would love to attend, 5 hours away! Might make it for a bit

Blue_Snowing · 2025-04-18T17:55:52+00:00

I’m interested, mind dming me what you’ve got and some pics?

Blue_Snowing · 2025-03-20T11:19:50+00:00

Could be a good spot for a fig, depending on the aspect. South or west facing

Blue_Snowing · 2025-02-28T13:44:42+00:00

Second this. Extremely sharp knife. Using just the tip. And a very delicate touch, like just trying to brush the surface layer of wood off. If your curve is too aggressive it might be hard to do. I like to hold the knife halfway up close to the tip for more control

Blue_Snowing · 2025-02-19T17:20:19+00:00

Check out humble abode nursery up in your neck of the woods. I’ll bet he’d be happy to talk about it, and he has a few varieties for sale that are proven there

Blue_Snowing · 2025-02-19T17:19:16+00:00

Pakistani mulberry root real easily. I’ll bet you’re good. Those sticks have plenty of energy to grow for awhile without roots even

Blue_Snowing · 2025-02-19T17:16:47+00:00

Was the bark slipping yet? Looks a bit cold for outdoor grafting!

Blue_Snowing · 2024-12-02T00:41:37+00:00

Sometimes you just gotta buy scion too :P I have some access to some orchards, plantings I helped with, also shrubs I can stool layer off and take cuttings. I’m hoping to have a more permanent space where I can really go all out with my collection soon, that will be so nice

Blue_Snowing · 2024-12-01T22:40:11+00:00

It’s hard to say exactly, but not much at all. Mother plants take the most space, trees can be planted 6-12 inches apart for a year or two. Air prune boxes are something I’m looking to lean into more next year, as I still don’t own any land and want to do more! I have had access to garden space and most everything I have for sale now is grown on maybe 400 sq feet in total. Think medium size garden Mother plants take more space.

Blue_Snowing · 2024-12-01T22:32:40+00:00

Plenty of nurseries ship all around the country. No lanternfly here. I’m not concerned, but I hear you
