Just chopped a tree down and thought it'd be food to do something creative with the wood, 'cos I'm a poof, like.
Anyway, not being very good at these things, I thought I'd start with something simple, so i chopped it up into little stools for me kids (don't know how I got kids, being a poof 'en all). To make 'em nice I thought I'd do a little carving on each one. So I bought a shitty set of carving tools for 100 baht from homepro and made this...
Anyway, knowing this was pretty crap and that a good workman always blames his tools I went out and bought some more for 500 baht and made this....
then this....
Still not too good and they took me fookin ages to make because the tools I've got are only for detailed work.
So what I need is some proper tools...
These are made by some Swiss company called Pfeil, but any decent ones will do.
So does anyone knoe where to get them from in Bangkok? They must be available as there are loads of wood carvers around.
Actually, it looks like I should get mesel' up to changmai for this one
