Over the weekend, I was at La's house. We went out to get wood. On 30, towards Everett, there is a we-buy-lumber place that cuts off the butt ends of timber logs and leaves them in a pile for determined souls to heft onto pickup trucks and take away to burn. Now, these are timber logs, so the butt ends are kind of large. 2' is on the small end of the diameters you're working with. They're timber logs so they're freshly cut and soaking wet (and thus extra-heavy, for the not-familiar-with-firewood folks among the lexience). Length varies but is typically between 6" and 3'.

So, progress on the deer hide -> parchment project. All the hides have most of the hair off of them. Two of the hides have all the hair off of them and have been grained. Heck, one of them is on the frame, being stretched while it dries. There's been all sorts of progress, if by progress you're willing to accept "mostly soaking in a solution of hydrated lime".

As facebook followers may already be aware, this season's project is a medieval style book.

Because it's deer season, that's why! )
