Carved spreaders

[Baggy]

Hi all

I had some bits and bobs of wood in the shed so I made a few spreaders. I use the harder wood spreaders as a stirring stick and a cutting tool when cooking and eating.

The next few are made from cherry and have wonderful colouring

The next two are carved from apple, the wood was twisted and gnarly but came out well and with a lovely colouring,

Lastly a carved oak spreader

What a great idea. I've gotta try to make one of those.

Bet mine are nowhere near as good looking as those though. Good job!

The apple are particularly good looking.

The large flat areas make it surprisingly difficult, I found having a wider faceted handle made it easier
