Good Advice

A Gallery of Some Past Projects

Design was kept as short as possible for transport. The cross bolt where the arm hinges is a salvaged bolt from an old truck spare tire holder.

The small rucksack with the portmanteau attached.

Replicated woven sandals from the Southern High Plains and the greater Southwest. Produced from narrow-leaf yucca.

A little walnut oil brings out the grain.

Elk leg sinews dried and ready for processing.

Tools, clockwise from lower left: large awl, sewing awl, rivercane needle case, bone toothpick, sewing needles in center.

Argh! A moment of distraction means the snap of a stone bit!

The holdfasts in place, holding nothing in particular.

Higher, more ergonomic table.

My Portmanteau. 18th Century style, it has become my favorite overnight bag.

Bodhrans.

My traveling bucksaw.

Dopp kit and some leather working tools I use to create items like this.

Paleotool at Rabbitstick, Rexburg, Idaho

My personal favorite (at the moment).

The author with his antler-fork walking stick and his dog begging for a walk.

Mountain dulcimer.

Or just click the image to get to the gallery.

Treadle lathe turned bowl and plate made by Mick Robins in spaleted alder (I think). The spoon is Osage orange carved by me.

An overview of traveling gear. I see this format on the web a lot so I’m stealing the style from far batter photographers than I.

Low-resolution selfie from a morning hike.

The little table has many miles on it now and doesn’t look this pretty at all. I’m actually in the midst of refinishing it and will post pictures sometime soon.

Flame maple neck, walnut rim.

Taking a break.

Bodhrans.

The bench’s small size will allow it to pack easily into the truck, even holding items in the tills.

Willow pack basket I made several years ago. The straps were obviously new then.

The sacred connection.

And I added a leather thong.
