This was made without proper preperations, just a spare of the moment thing and it worked for purpose so all good. Next time will be better.<br /><br />Gorges, I have read lots about basket making which is why i wanted to have a wee go. Youtube is a brilliant resource. What is foxfire?<br /><br />CheersAndrew Boehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03217903012726185957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323643181516362757.post-61846532374613311372010-11-27T01:43:17.060+00:002010-11-27T01:43:17.060+00:00Very nice post.

The Foxfire books have a section or two on making split oak baskets if they're available over there. Also, you might want to check YouTube.Gorges Smythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777621500611603786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323643181516362757.post-13515991879830058322010-11-25T19:56:37.929+00:002010-11-25T19:56:37.929+00:00Looks like a very nice basket!Looks like a very nice basket!Stevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14346083741149983417noreply@blogger.com
