Failure/Non-Failure
I got to looking at the kuksa project that I abandoned last week and thought I would give another try.
After a nice day in the yard chunking and chipping away, this is how it turned out. Free form design with just axe and knives.

Way better than I could have done.

There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

Re: Failure/Non-Failure
Thanks guys. I have the first coat of epoxy on the outside to try and plug the holes and keep the knot in place. Tomorrow it will get a light sanding and then I figure out what for a finish.

Ok, "abandoned project" kuksa done! Turned out smaller than I thought, only holds 3.5oz.
Now on to the mate half of the knotty lump. This one holds 6oz.

Re: Failure/Non-Failure
Alrighty then, here we go again. Had a real productive day down in the shop. Here is the mate to the abandoned project, I call it the palmer. I have to do the finish shaping and sanding as well as a finish.
Here is a photo of the twins.

Pretty darn cool.
Not everyone can be a winner or get a trophy, we are raising a society full of pu**ies
2nd place is the 1st place loser.
Currently looking for that unicorn.

Re: Failure/Non-Failure
Here is probably the last one Ill make for a while. This half has more red tones than the other, Nemette says the back looks like starry night.
