  1. When I was making a hurley for myself. I made it of ash I got part of a tree trunk. I had a hatchet and saw I cut the piece of wood the length I wanted it and then I chipped it with the hatchet until it was the right width. I planed it off with a plane. I use the part of the tree that is shaped like a hurley.
