Just a little update guys. The drawknife hasn’t killed me and I’m still here.

Had a few life issues get in the way in that I’ll be leaving my job in February so the last couple of months have been spent trying to find a new one!

Hopefully once that’s sorted I can restart my bat making journey.

Good luck on the job search mate - not many jobs kicking around around this area

What line of work are you in @SAFC2403 - perhaps someone on here may be able to help point you towards an opportunity?
