Home grown spoon carving!

Today we have been testing out some tools including a new Sloyd knife design. Being able to use your own home grown timber to make spoons and woodenware with tools you have also made is a great feeling. Certainly the best way to test tools is to put them to use on the task they have been designed for. This new "Laser Sloyd" is certainly a great tool for carving spoons and made quick work on som...

    I would not add sugar. Sugar feeds cancer. It defeats the object of it being a healthy drink. I would add honey. To remove bugs place the flowers on a large sheet of paper and bugs will naturally leave the flowers. Empty paper humanely in the garden.

    After determining your location, I immediately made my decision tio subscribe. It was 1970 or 1971 that I participated in a preaching mission to Great Britain. I was fortunate to be assigned to an incredibly quaint village by the name of Crishall. The family with whom I stayed were delightful and very hospitable. The gentleman of the house was a farmer, church musician, & also tended an orchard. Most likely, the time of my visit preceded your birth. As a new subscriber, I look forward to learning much from you & your wife: experimenting with new skills and/or refreshing former skills. Thank you again, and may God bless you & yours!

    Thank you for enabling an 83 year old man to take a walk down Memory Lane & for refreshing my memory on how to make wooden whistles like I did in my childhood & adolescence! From your accent I detected that you & your wife must live on the other side of the Atlantic. I look forward to watching more of your videos; & on the basis of this presentation, I am seriously considering becoming a subscriber. Almost 50 years ago I learned many rustic handcrafts when my family lived in the Southeastern Appalachian mountains in the USA. We now live in the Deep South. In my earlier years I was privileged to visit England, Ireland, & Scotland from which some of my ancestors migrated to America; others possibly came from Sweden or Switzerland. I am very blessed to discover your channel. May God bless you & yours!

    I had no idea until by accident heard of this . I have 3 river birch but for the first time at the beginning of the year I gave them bayer feed and protect because the June bugs were eating away the leaves . I love them for their beauty and I live in a subdivision ( more about looks than nourishing) . Also use fertilizers for lawn care . I guess I will not be drinking their sap 😢

    Hi. Great video. I have 1 question. You have made 20 litres and left for 2 weeks to mature. Does the whole batch then need drunk or refrigerated to stop the fermentation process or could I safely store the bottles in the garage and refrigerate a bottle at a time and drink at my leasure? Thanks.
