Thanks for the shout out. I love seeing your builds with the natural materials mixed with epic scenery. Your videos are top tier my friend. 👊

I love it!<br><br>For the stopper you can probably coat the wood in beeswax to make the seal better

This is fantastic and so much here I love! The whole idea of putting natural materials together, along with the carving and pyrography runes to make a piece that is part of a larger story, I am so intrigued by this and will be looking at your other vids- like who is this wizard what is this world I really want to know! So lovely of your wife to share her gourds, which also looked so beautiful growing there, and you got the one that looks like a ham! Bonus! That made me chuckle, had to go back and listen again did he just say ham 😂😂 thanks for the shout out much appreciated and so glad you gave this a try. I can see you were bitten by the gourd bug- that’s what we say when someone discovers how cool gourds are! Looking forward to seeing what else you create! Happy Gourding- and cording 😊 btw your scenery where you live is breathtaking!

A backpack would be great! but also item of clothing could be pretty interesting to see your take on. I've hand sewn a 18th century shirt and 'viking tunic' before with linen and although time consuming such a great experience and is my favourite pieces Ive ever made.

Great vid. It would be cool to make a scroll holder with a few scrolls. You can make the scrolls weathered or go opposite and have them be crisp with gold leaf accents. <br><br>A wizard needs scrolls or books just as much as they need a staff.

Wonderful! A waking stick or cane? Thank you from Gold Beach Oregon USA!

Also just had a thought, what about some foraging containers or herb containers? like that plantain video you did well if your druid came across some medicinal plants he would need somewhere to keep them until he needed to use it? 🤔 Both at home and while out foraging?

Стенки таких тыкв не очень прочные. Горлышко может ломаться, если много раз вставлять пробку плотно. Имеет смысл обматывать их снаружи верёвкой или кожей.
