[CROSBY]

Hi everyone, many thanks to admins for allowing me to join the group. I live in County Durham uk, and am an avid whittler wood worker, using materials from the surrounding woodlands where i live, i make country sticks, using mainly Hazel & blackthorn for the shafts and hand carve the tops, handles, usually from kiln dried lime, i make dog whistles from antler, horn, and wood, basically i just enjoy working with natural products. I looked into making a slingshot on youtube and watched a couple of tutorials, so i`m new to this, but am willing to learn from more experienced members. Hope to chat to you all on the forum.

I've found it MUCH easier to upload pics from my iphone using the Tapatalk App

When your typing a post, down in the lower left of my screen is an icon that looks like mountains, and I click that, which takes me straight to the pics folder on my phone where I choose what I want to upload.
