Darts carry box

Post by Camel »

Made this up over the last few days out of a few bits and pieces of timber that I have in the shed. Red gum lid, pine base, oak sides and ends, silky oil and red cedar for other bits like spare shaft holder, darts holder and spare flight pocket

Thanks, yeah pretty chuffed, though there are a few errors, couple of gaps and such, 2mm narrower at one end, but it turned out ok. Was a good practice run, will probably do another but take a bit more care.

Nah RAF Productions is kept in the background for special projects for special people, like that T Thompson fella, as long as it’s shines he is happy Image

Finished doing the handle on the new cleaver, 8 1/2 inch blade with red gum handle, still some polishing to do and handle to be oiled

Knife handles done over the last week or so in between waiting for glue to dry, all old resurrected knives I have picked up over the years. Some Greenrivers, an F Dick or two, and some hand forged, some I don’t know, but they all have good high carbon steel in them, and I will use them when doing sheep killing and butchering, three on the end are still to do
