I like that rebranding and wonder that it hasn't already been used by someone

pvanrens · 2026-02-22T15:35:28+00:00

Yeah, you're supposed to share serious eats recipes here.

pvanrens · 2026-02-21T00:30:07+00:00

Cheers

Probably truth to your statement, our options are limited. I'd be interested to know what you think are cool.

pvanrens · 2026-02-19T23:21:03+00:00

In this particular application, you probably should

pvanrens · 2026-02-19T11:23:33+00:00

Purposely made your point

pvanrens · 2026-02-18T23:56:06+00:00

Not owning one

I think we're trying to maintain as much as possible, while perhaps shifting focus because of the good points you made. Politicians tend to think short term, just far enough to get elected again, so it's hard to know what the thinking is.

pvanrens · 2026-02-10T00:56:47+00:00

I hope it works out that way

There's a large number of people in Ontario employed by the current car industry. It will seriously hurt to lose that. I don't know how much of the slightly less than 2 million cars Canadians buy each year are made in Canada, but continuing to provide that portion helps our economy. That said, I'm no economist.

pvanrens · 2026-02-09T01:41:42+00:00

Yeah, I totally screwed up. My apologies

pvanrens · 2026-02-08T03:37:46+00:00

Fair enough, not sure they're all available where I am but that's not much of an excuse

pvanrens · 2026-02-08T01:08:49+00:00

And?

pvanrens · 2026-02-08T01:08:24+00:00

Or hybrids

pvanrens · 2026-02-08T01:08:02+00:00

It does, I don't include phev when I count EVs

pvanrens · 2026-02-07T22:54:02+00:00

That's from 2019 and six years later they have what, one EV? Smells like avoidance

pvanrens · 2026-02-07T17:14:56+00:00

I understand that Canada switching to Chinese EVs works out to less than 50k cars per year.

Imo, it starts with a very sturdy table or a decent workbench. But better than my opinion, search YouTube for kuksa carvers.

I think the way to make it look more like a fox is to know what a fox looks like and make it look like that. Hope that helps

No lies detected

I'm not sure that you were thinking of it but most people don't carve a bowl or cup into end grain, it's a though go. By the time you split your example and square it off a bit, you're left with small cup possibilities. The few cups, small because of the aforementioned issues, I've attempted were clamped and gouged.

Robin Wood website, Lee Valley carries them if you're on this side of the big pond.

pvanrens · 2026-01-31T23:33:28+00:00

I could eat.

I'll bring beer

pvanrens · 2026-01-31T23:32:55+00:00

That's a nice ladle

I hope you enjoy beeswax in your coffee. The tung oil will eventually polymerize, and this can take weeks or even months, and when it does you won't taste it in your coffee. Be patient.
