Wooden Spoon

Project by Demowen posted 148 days ago 1662 views 4 times favorited 36 comments Add to Favorites Watch

This is actually not my project, it is my girlfriends! This is her first project that she did all by herself. I am quite proud of her and can’t wait to see her next project. This covered a lot of basics and hand tools. I think that she is a little more comfortable with some bigger tools like the band saw and lathe now. I think she is going to make a Boston Bombay next ;) We’ll see!

Who get’s to use it first?

It’s a nice piece, no matter if it’s a 1st or 1,000th. She did a very good job.

This is a really nice spoon. Nice choice of woods as well.

Tell Brittany she did an awesome job on the spoon!!

The walnut inlay and the partial Celtic knot really add to the beauty of the overall spoon.

You’d better be nice to her. She now has a big spoon that she can use to get her way. When I was a kind, my mother would have likely used on my backside when I was getting into mischief.

Seriously, she did some nice work on that spoon.

Spoon? what spoon? OW oh, sorry honey, didn’t see you reading over my shoulder…

great job on the first project! As a portrait photographer though, I cringe at some of the cropping in your images. LOL.

And with that smile and those eyes… (presuming the one under those beautiful bangs matches the one we can see…) wow, I’d never get out into the shop near enough to justify having it. Oh wait, I’m there now. thanks to work. LOL

hmm, here’s a simple one.. pull back a bit so that you don’t lop off the top of her head, and show the entire spoon… ;)
