Chisel handle

Here are the promised handle pictures.

This is my grandfather's chisel, which my dad inherited sans handle. I decided to make a quickie out of some oak I had around, and it came out pretty well. I really need a lathe, though.

Note the lack of a ferrule. Carving a cylinder out of a block of wood was hard enough once. It means that this chisel, while fine for paring (hand pushing) is unsuitable for being hit with a mallet.

I am home

I have arrived back from my trip to Europe. The rest of my photographs are either in my fridge waiting to be developed (if they are black & white) or at the lab waiting for pickup tomorrow. Here are a small selection of photographs I have on hand, along with a sort of abstract I shot before the trip.
