My sister swears by Lee Valley but I find they are very expensive. They do seem to carry a lot of harder to find items. Haven’t been to the store in a few years.Gmorning, funny we're doing the same thing today. into Halifax , Costco lunch, Lee Valley tools, I need a new band saw, just shopping not buying as yet. I ordered 2 blocks of Olive wood from Etzy. I was....lol...just shopping and I couldn't resist. I see a few olive wood bowls in my future.View attachment 24961
I’m guessing you’re after some hand tools or chisels? My papa used to whittle his pipes on the cottage porch after dinner. Didn’t even seem to watch what he was doing. But the wood slowly took shape while the shavings piled up at his feet. IIRC he drilled the two holes then carved the rest with his pocket knives.
