The PEA version of round wood woodworking is similar to the PEP version. It is still about using unprocessed wood to create new things without glue and largely without metal. As with the PEP aspect, power tools are generally discouraged. Many projects are about the joy of working with green wood, which is much easier to shape than dry wood. Unlike the PEP aspect, almost every project at the sand badge is something small. The assumption is that space will be at a premium.

If you need to find sources of greenwood, you can find permies offering solutions here.

Sand
Carve a sauerkraut stomper from a single piece of wood suitable for a wide-mouth jar using only hand tools

PEA Round wood

I’d like to apply for the PEA Round Wood Working badge. The roundwood PEP badge is currently not possible for me so I’m so happy there are PEA badges.

1)  Carve a sauerkraut stomper

2) Compound Mallet (PEP BB)
