    Default Skipnord's workshop & some spalted maple brush handles...

    Today I just had to get out of Dodge ( the house) so I drove over to Skips workshop.
    When I arrived he was heat treating some blacksmith tools he had recently made.

    He also handed me a block of spalted maple and helped me turn a brush for myself. This was the first shaving brush handle I have ever turned
