  1. Time to carve again… First work made out of black cherry plum wood (prunus nigra / Blutpflaume).
    Really nice material, lovely colors and comfortable to carve.

    Using some Mora knives, Pfeil spoon knives and a Fiskars Norden axe.

  2. Just finished (I say finished, but I think "gave up" is a better phrase) carving my first spoon in about eighteen years. It's lumpy and wonky, and the bowl's a little too deep for a comfy eating spoon, but a little too shallow for a scoop.

    Some parts are lovely though.

    Room for improvement then. But since the first step to mastery is giving yourself permission to suck, I reckon it's a good start.

  7. A few weeks back @jillswan10 and I ran a carving day together, I started this spoon from a bent piece of Cherry.
    It's got alternating facets and curves, that really blend well for the eye, much more pleasing in person than the photos, and sometimes life if just like that.

  10. This glorious piece of Cherry makes me smile so very much, the last of three spoons from this one billet I had, all the rest of the log looks like Cherry I'm used to.
    I wonder what's caused this billet to be so different, does anyone know?

  17. Men så gölligt!

    Som textilslöjdlärare är detta lilla tips så fint och nu måste jag printa spök-kakformar för hela slanten inför nästa veckas lektioner. 👻
