Scottie Initial Work

I styled this tree with Ben a few days ago to help explain the use of raffia in making bends. This is the material, not very exciting and needed a little drama added.

  1. This is excellent work!!
    Learning techniques for using raffia is a must for Working Pine!

    I have like many used other materials like self amalgamating tape etc, but Raffia is so much better!
