Wood spoon

Because I didn't resist temptation not to carve in this wood

I made a spoon ...

But not relly a simple Spoon, ... a SPOON and a FORK, shortened SPORK :-)









It si made from cherry wood, and sanded with 40,80,100,180,240,320,400,500,1000,2000,2500.
The substance which result is silky than china :-)

  6. Why use sand? If u learn to carv with right tools, it wil be smoth like china to. Sanding makes wooden sculptures lose the shapes. Trye work with the grain. Of u sand it so much, why even bother carving it? U take away al the clean lines and shapes. Then try to make them thinner. How does it feel in the mouth? Compare to a steel spoon. Its no problem to make a spoon thin, so it feels nice in the mouth. Look at old used spoons. They are paper thin, bit they follow the grain. And now core in them.
    Good luck!

  7. Thank you Peter for comment and advise. I am a begginer and I didn't know almost nothing about sculpture. Every thing what I do with wood is only intuition. I know, I have many to learn.
    Thank you again.
