Well, maybe I'm not as good at this as I originally thought.

My last post was almost 5 months ago, where the heck did the time go?
The shop has been keeping me busy, this year is shaping up to be a bit better than last. Thankfully my customers are a patient lot overall.
I found a very old slab of charred heavy hardwood that has been gathering dust for more than 30 years. I finally decided to cut into it to see what it was. Turns out to be some Brazilian Kingwood from Brazil. Far more rare than ebony, it is also harder and heavier. I decided to make a few Sharps pistolgrips with it to give it a try. What a pleasant surprise!

I grafted a newtown apple to a pear tree in Idaho. I really did not expect it to take. To my surprise, it worked.

A customer brought this sleeper into the shop awhile back.

We pulled the forearm, and discovered the mark of the old master, Monte Kennedy, dated Sept. 1950.

The 78 Sharps Borshardt is a highly desireable piece, sadly many of them were butchered into varminters in the post war years. This one at least had an appreciative owner, and it wore its last 70 years quite nicely.

OK, I surrender....
I don't do Facebook, or Linkedin, or twitter, or God knows what else is out there.

At the very least, I would like to bring this old website back to life with a bit of attention on my part.
Treebonecarving.com was launched almost 20 years ago, and a lot of the fuzzy pics are originals.

I will try to keep current with posts that may be of interest to folks that have an interest in stockmaking.

I have accumilated a bunch of finished project photos that customers have sent in, which I greatly appreciate, but have failed to post on the site. I hope to correct that....
