Bowl crazy

[bb07]

Spoons, kuksas, bowls or axes, if it's wood then I'm having a lot of fun with my newest obsession, with bowls being my latest effort. With every thing I try, the next seems to be a little bit easier, so with that to encourage me I'm carving like a madman and enjoying every minute of it. Pretty basic stuff to start but once I gain experience I'll tackle tougher projects

All criticism, good or bad is very welcome, as it's all learning. Birch for all and mostly still green and in various stages of drying:

They're all wonderful! What do you do with them now? Do you use them? I usually give away any carvings that are passable to relatives.

I understand exactly how you feel about the learning process. When I work on something, I also think, this is hard, but it will be easier to do next time.

Those are just great. I love all of them.

I'd love to know what adze you are using.

I have given some to family but oddly enough haven't used any of them myself. So far they're mostly piling up in the corner When I get a chance I'll probably try to sell them.

I'd love to know what adze you are using.

I went all out and got this : Hans Karlsson Small Adze (600g) 5cm

Now I know why you are so axe obsessed! Great work, keep piling them up and it becomes a fire hazard, my advice is sell them and buy more tools!
