Ferro rods are up in the shop in time for Christmas. Maybe not my most exciting project but these little guys are 5/16 inch diameter and a little over 2 in long beyond the handle. All the handles are mule deer antler and come with a loop for hanging or can be replaced buy a cord of your choosing. www.etsy.com/shop/LostWorldCrafts #Ferro rod #survival #survival gear #Firestarter

Good Advice

A Gallery of Some Past Projects

Paleotool at Rabbitstick, Rexburg, Idaho

The holdfasts in place, holding nothing in particular.

The sacred connection.

Elk leg sinews dried and ready for processing.

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.

And I added a leather thong.

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

Bodhrans.

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

Higher, more ergonomic table.

Or just click the image to get to the gallery.

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

My traveling bucksaw.

Mountain dulcimer.

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

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

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.

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.

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

Bodhrans.

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

A little walnut oil brings out the grain.

My personal favorite (at the moment).

The small rucksack with the portmanteau attached.

Taking a break.

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

Flame maple neck, walnut rim.

Low-resolution selfie from a morning hike.

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