Creating a wooden spoon.
So I've turned a bunch of wooden utensils for friends and family, but never
had time to finish them for Xmas presents. The reason behind this is not because of the handles (which look fab thank you very much) but because of the other end. I've gotten good creating the wooden flipper but I'm having trouble finding an efficient way to carve or remove the material from the spoon to make it a spoon. I've tried my dremel with an aggressive sanding tube and that works, but takes forever to actually hollow it out and get a good spoon. I've also tried my ROS with 80 grit on it and cut round groves on the edges to make a textured spoon, but not one with a good deep spoon pocket. So How do I create or hollow out the spoon part after I've turned the handle? I cannot think of any way to do this with the lathe, and I need to do it in an efficient manner as I have about 30 of these to do. Thanks!!! |
