Sometimes a whittle doesn’t always go as planned… #whittling #edc

One of my favorite things is being the first one at the clinic and flipping on the lights. It’s staying nice and cool here in the myofascial bodywork studio. Here’s a few self-care reminders for this week’s heat wave.

New guitar amp day! I paired up my new Laney Lionheart Foundary Super 60-112 with my Supro Black Magick. I am looking forward to a long weekend making a lot of music!

A day off to make music. Here is an ambient improvisation, making a drone with the Studiologic NumaCompact X SE and playing the Reverend Double Agent OG guitar. On the pedalboard is the Wampler Tumnus and Universal-Audio Del-Verb going into the Supro Black Magick and Blackstar HT-5R valve amps.

My abridged history of whittling spirals in wood.

Whittling progress, finishing up a triple spiral with the LionSteel B35 fixed blade and cleaned up the inner rungs with the Victorinox Rambler Swiss Army Knife. #whittling #woodcarving #bushcraft #edc #fixedblade #swissarmyknife #victorinoxrambler

Just a momma and her ducklings, napping nearby while I was whittling by the river on my lunch break .

My only full day off this week and making time to look for sticks by the riverside. My first project of the day was to make a little bushcraft stand, which works pretty well to hold up my sunglasses. I used the LionSteel B35 fixed blade, the Victorinox Pioneer X Alox, and the Silky F180 folding saw.

I spent all
afternoon outside, mostly by the river.

A curious goose was interested in my whittling.

Dropped off my ballot on my ebike ride home. Ballots can be dropped off until 8pm. Get out there and vote! #vote #clackamascounty #milwaukieoregon
