Hello Slingshot Forum friends!!!!
Here's my latest work, a PFS carved out from a fork of olive wood (Olea europaea)
It was finished with linseed oil, shellac and beeswax.
It is already on its way to the US, as a gift for a friend and legend in the PFS world

Hope you like it!!
Best regards ...Q

Hello my friend!!

THANK YOU so much for your reply!

I usually carve my frames with some Morakniv and Flexcut knives.

Then rasps and sandpaper follows. As many grits as you can, for making a smooth surface.

Cheers ...Q

MANY THANKS FOR YOUR AWESOME FEEDBACK!!!

I'm sorry to reply in "multiquote" mode, but I've been really stressed up in time these days.

This World has turn in an unimaginable way, and my computer has become more than a simple pleasure or hobby

I've been struggling to have time for our sport. But you know what?? ADDICTION is hard to cure!!

Hope you're all fine, my friends!!!
