new spoon

[paul atkin]

been playing around with the spalted sycamore and using my modified husky and home made knives i made this wikkle spoon. Trying to get in some practice before spoonfest

Looks interesting, another pic perhaps?

 

[Sean Hellman]

" husky" do you really mean your chainsaw?

 

[Wayne]

Probably a husvquana axe. I own a few nice little axes for the money

 

[paul atkin]

sorry for the bad pic will try get a better one. Sean the husky is a slightly modded carpenters axe, i rounded of the straight edge to make it better for carving i prefer it to the hatchet of the same make.

What is a wikkle?

Nice crafts on you site!

 

[paul atkin]

A better pic

And the tools i used

I am no expert at carving spoons, i have a lot to learn but was pleased with this one and will keep practicing.
Sorry hoodoo by wikkle i mean small

[robin wood]

nice work Paul, you have plenty of time for practice before Spoonfest not that you need it.
