Title: love spoons
Post by: Caribbean Scroller on April 16, 2011, 04:02:50 pm

I gave my saw a little break [although I use it to cut around these and to do the inside cuts] and did a little carving .

Those are very, very nice. I wish I could carve. The only problem is I am so clumsy that my fingers will start bleeding even before I touch the chisel!
Again Those spoons are beautiful!

Those look really good. Lovespoons are a long standing tradition in Wales where they have been made for well over 300 years.

You my friend are an artist indeed. It's one thing to create something beautiful with the help of a machine, but to do so with carving tools is extraordinary.
