woodland pioneers

its been a bit since woodland pioneers but due to camera problems im only just rounding up a collection of the photos other people have taken of me. We made an oak bridge, hewing the beams, cleaving the pailings and rails for the fence and pegging it all together. not sure what im doing with the mugs, or why im doing it, although i know its not essential for the success of the bridge. To see more pictures of the bridge being built and of anything else that happened on woodland pioneers, click this link to the BHMAT website- http://coppiceapprentice.org.uk/pioneers2011.php#7bridge

on friday, i ran a small morning group on how to make a simple box out of a equally simple log. (its a similar technique to the log to lute but without the neck.)

one i made as an example.
