Nice, did you use a conventional knife or a spoon knife?

Thanks for the kind words chaps, just getting the hang of my new flexcut spoon knife.

I will be doing more projects like this though. I at one time found carving incredibly frustrating as I could never get the wood to do what I wantes (and blamed the wood) practice has shown me that it was my fault and that I needed different practices and techniques. Working things out slowly though

I enjoy making little spoons, good job on this one Dave. Do you like the flexicut?

 

[Stringmaker]

Once you start making spoons you have crossed over to the dark side..........you are always making one.

Well done.

Has anybody mentioned the old gag yet about wanting to make a canoe paddle and ending up with a teaspoon?

Ah, I just did.

 

[firecrest]

well done dave! loving the stabby end! hey I bet you could drill a fine hole into the end of a spoon and stick pencil lead in it.

 

[Wayne]

Nice spoon. Carving spoons is rather addictive.

 

[Dean]

Nice spoon Dave, looking forward to seeing your next one.

 

[Turnstone]

A cute little spoon!

Just finished my first spoon, and you are right, I learned a lot about the wood, the knives and the technique. In the beginning really frustrating, and I thought I would never get something I might find useful or good-looking...

Mm, I like doing tiddly ones,too. Except when I just must make something enormous. And then, of course, it ends up whittled down into another teaspoon. Nice one.

Cheers,
Leif
