@ElDeadKennedy @sun
I found videos of people making their own, also including symbols of their favorite franchise. one could do a Star Wars one etc -

I posted actual wooden ones too. but etsy is not good option since it's darn expensive.
attached one is 150€$ -

@kaia @mangeurdenuage well
I'd say like 50 would be adequate if it's hand made and of some exotic woodkaia likes this. -

@piggo @mangeurdenuage
yeah oak should work. we have a sawmill back home where I can ask. they probably have scrap. my dad has table saw. but I don't know how to... grind it. I don't think he has a machine -

@kaia eh, if it works it works - fun to see what other people use. It's a deep rabbit hole.

@piggo @mangeurdenuage
I do have sandpaper, but none of the other things. but thanks for the English names, that helps a lot. think buying a cheap electric hand plane is still cheaper than buying a finished one -

@kaia @mangeurdenuage you do this with a thickness planer, or a router or an electric hand plane with a jig to make it work like one. I saw a guide for this on YouTube, didn't get around to try it yet
Or old school just saw & sandpaper, but it will be a ton of work and not perfect 😔 -

@kaia @mangeurdenuage you can do a lot with it, it takes some skill but you can always even it out with the sandpaper or a sanding tool afterwards. I only bought one a month ago or so, still learning kaia likes this.
