What are good options for a currently commercially available draw knife and spoke shave? Mid range price and quality. Bonus if they work on HD cork.

I treated myself to a window AC unit in my workshop last weekend. I like where your head is at.

Well I got canvas for my blind build and cork/basswood for decoys. What do I do first? Decisions decisions.

I would have cut myself three times doing that. lol. Thanks!!!

I can tell by the feathering consistency that you are far more patient than I am.

I’ve always struggled with the bill to face transition. Yesterday I traded a decoy with a friend and stared at it for a while. I couldn’t figure out what I liked so much about it, then I realized it was the head. I immediately set to trying to do one the same way. I might need to not make it...

Thanks, I’ll keep an eye out for some. That’s been my plan (white pine) to start since white cedar is not readily available right around me. The sawmill I visited had a lot of Spruce so I thought I would check on that option. I’ll keep searching.

It’s tulip poplar.

That’s a tough day. Hopefully you weren’t in the smoke while doing it.

How do those heads hold up with the grain direction you have to use to make them?

Circling back - I have a line on spruce and poplar. Dried, knot free, cut to specifications, and inexpensive. Thoughts?

Looks like they are spoken for now by Dave. Thanks everyone.

Very close. I could definitely meet you there.

I bought these off of Jon Yenni’s widow to help her out but I’m not going to use them. 7 puddlers and 6 divers. Yes there are 8 and 7 pictured. But one of each of the types are messed up. So they are free. Weighted keeled. $10 apiece. Sold as a lot. So $130 Will trade for HD cork...

It’s worth noting and I appreciate the concern! I am still new to this, especially cork.

The picture angle is misleading. But I did make the slot deeper.

Can’t forget about the ladies of course!
