Coffee scoop anyone?.was going to be a spoon but the handle kept shrinking. Lol. It's a piece of cedar I cut at work a while back. Started with a hatchet. Moved to knife. Sanded with 220 and 320 and finished with food grade mineral oil.
Yea it's actually a juniper bush I yanked out a while back. Reddish purple is the color. Hand is healed up good now. Still wearing the gloves. Added some mineral oil for the finish. One more coat and it'll be go.That’s cute! The wood is red like that? If you isolate, you’ll end up being really good at carving!
Is that your injured hand? It looks all healed up, thankfully!
Another one for fun. Wasn't planning on finishing today but it happens. Lol
Thanks. I need to start doing full figurines. These can be fun and only take an hour or so. Gonna do a few more then let the kids paint them for art class since they're out of school. Been doing stuff like that. Science treasure hunts were fun. LolAwww, that’s adorable. It’s like a little Viking guy!
Staring at the pic I realized I how to do the boots so next time should look better. Was just going off memory and knew something wasn't right. Lol.Awww, that’s adorable. It’s like a little Viking guy!

I've often thought of using an RC boat on the lakes to get a bait right out to the depths. My luck a pelican would swoop it up and game over.
Tried my hand at crochet hooks
There are some pretty good ones on there. Surely would be a market for a dedicated fishing one that had cameras to see underwater and a fishfinder relaying it all back to a screen on the controller.Lol yea that would be something to see.
Look up rc fishing on youtube..some cool stuff on there.

Pop marts, I never got in to funko but there a company in China call pop mart. They make some pretty cute things and kinda got me into collecting again. (Feel like collecting again) what’s interesting is they also have mysterious boxes I believe. (Not too sure on that)I collect Funko figures. Pops! Mystery Minis and Dorbz
Here's most of my collection.
Funko has mystery boxes. And all of the mini figures pictured are called Mystery Minis and are sold in a blind box. You buy the box not knowing what character is in it.Pop marts, I never got in to funko but there a company in China call pop mart.

My hobby is fishing. Which is banned at the moment so have to wait.
I love chasing big trout with soft plastics. Also perch using softies as well.
Nothing like a big trout sneakily take it, slowly moves off, then it realises hooked and explodes in huge reel screaming runs.

Too bad there isn't much resale value in these tho unless you sell online. Lots of money in those pictures that I sure could use now lol.

Hi, no, obviously then he likes his fishing too. My Father got me into fishing, he was a mad Trout fisherman, and as a kid every opportunity we got we went fishing. Amazing great memories of our times doing so. He grew up in the bush and knew everything about it and taught it all to me, fishing, hunting, survival the lot. Every time I make a good catch I attribute it all to his fishing wisdom. Funny though, he wasn't a big fan of eating fish. But he spent 15 yrs in the Aus Navy before I was born, he was a gunner on the twin bofers, but one of his best friends was the ships cook. My dad was an awesome cook because of it learning from his mate and on the ships every chance he got he fished. Once I caught a beautiful 5 lb brown trout and he said "leave it to me, im going to cook this one". He did it in some special red wine sauce recipe he learnt with mushrooms and who knows what else.Have you spoken to @Rooster Cogburn?
I like that. Gonna use it.... they're like a timex or something -- take a licking and keep on ticking!

Our advertising here is a world apart from Melbourne and other capital cities. There its all city based consumerism, here its sheep lice control, farm machinery high yeild crops and 4wd utes. Have not seen a Timex add since I was a kid. Do they still exist?
This is the only one I see here.
They're still ticking.
I could see them taking off like Pokemon with people having them hanging from their rear views, on their work desks, kids swapping them, special edition Golden ones going for thou's on eBay. Even TV shows doing stories on the new craze sweeping the world. The Beardies. Get carving!Made a magnet out of big beard. The other took longer to paint than it did to carve. First attempt at arms. Not planned so mixed two styles. It's Ok though
