Celt
mullet:
Nice Jonathen, that sure looks time consuming. Hows the youngin' ?
Dingleberry:
Thanks Everyone. Eddie, I'm embarrassed to admit how long it took; especially since I could only work on it an hour here and there. The youngin is great. :)
jamie:
very cool. to be on the safe side wrap the area around the celt with wet rawhide so it constricts the wood so it doesnt split. the cutting angle of the head will fell a tree but should be a bit shallower. sure is a lot of work though and you did great. peace
Dingleberry:
Thanks Jamie. When I tested it out on a tree a hairline crack started and I put on some groundhog rawhide (from a failed bowstring) and sealed with some pine pitch. I will definitely get that angle better and ideally choose a bigger head.
Dingleberry:
oh.. and the picture.
