Bonjour le Fediverse, ça faisait un petit moment !

Je sors de ma tanière d'ours et de ma "trêve" des réseaux sociaux de l'entre deux collections, pour vous montrer la fabrication d'un... D'un quoi au juste ? 🧐

One of my godchildren burned/carved a spoon in school - now they want to start woodcarving as a hobby. Does anyone have a recommendation on good-quality tools that I could gift to my godchild? I've googled but tbh I don't really know how to assess usefulness/quality.

Edit: I am so pleasantly surprised and so grateful for all the helpful and kind answers that I have received! You are all great and lovely people and you've made my day!!
