The Spoon ~ Updated 11/17/07

Great – try to get a copy of a Shaker woodworking book with measured drawings – they made quite a few spoons and such out of wood.

That is so neat.. I wanna give that a try.. Was it hard to do? You did a really good job

I dont think it was hard to do, time consuming yes. Join the fun. I hope to see a spoon of yours in the future.

Carving is a lot more time consuming than I thought it would be but your right , it is a lot of fun. It might be my computer but the lighting is a bit off in the photos so I can’t see the details. Did you sand all your carving marks out of the spoon?

Snow dog I sanded them all away. I used 60 grit and worked my way to 220 on this one.

great christmas gift idea. my sister inlaw collects handmade wooden spoons

Interesting project Buckskin. A nice job. Can you reprocess the pictures without the flash.

Dan, this one has been in the coffee urn since its posting and it has certainly taken on a whole new patina.

I will have to try this weekend with some sunlight. The spoon is a bit different looking now. The coffee has created a new patina for it.

Karson ~ I have new photos up for you. My digital camera is now “old” so it does not do as well as others.

Thank you for the renewed interest for this project.
