i only had a couple of days of over the festive period so set to and made a couple of spoons out of cherry and a bowl out of horse chestnut,the bowl is drying out so i wont finish it for a few months....if it doesent crack.
the other spoon i made yesterday from a piece of apple limb,it came from the oldest apple tree we have in the garden,well over 100yrs old.
the leaf shaped dish i made today again from apple....thanks for looking..atb kev
Nice work there. I like the simplicity of the dish, would work very nicely with all the eggs my chickens seem to keep chucking out at the moment.
that would be a fitting use for it,its gonna be a bit deeper yet and a tooled finish.
i like simple lines,find it more pleasing to the eye,thanks for the comments..atb kev
Love that leaf shaped dish, excellent.
chestnut bowl finished
awesome work bud!!
thanks very much...atb kev
smart, how long did that lot take you?
Campfires are best shared with friends.
in total about 8hrs on the bowl,4hrs on the leaf dish and between 3-6 hours on each spoon..i take my time to get the best finish i can,i not been carving for long so every one is a learning curve and i'm allways trying to better the last one ie time technique etc....atb kev
