My very first handcarved spoon from plum wood treated with linseed oil.
Took me quite a long time (fiddled around with it for quite a while) to arrive to this final result. Closed the knots with sandust (using a 80grid from the same wood) and glue (titebond III). After sanding down the spoon in many places, I carved the entire surface again, to give the whole spoon more individual handmade character.

My very first handcarved spoon from plum wood treated with linseed oil.
I found a piece of wood that I had set aside about four years ago and thought was too good to burn. It was already a bit dry and cracked, but managed to carved a spoon out of it freehand. It's simple and not perfectly symmetrical. I had to work around the natural features (branches, warping, wood grain)
Not sure it is more a small long ladle or a bigger long spoon.

Ça prend forme. J'y vais doucement pour essayer d'éviter de faire trop de bêtises.

Held a heddle carving workshop the other week and since it's a few years since last time I thought it best to make a bunch to see if I liked the same method.
I've mostly made larger ones before but these smaller are also super nice carving.

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 ? 🧐

I made a mallet for my chisels in class at Mullsjö folkhögskola.
It was machine turned from elm wood that I received from my uncle.

Vintage-style salt box, made from Syzygium luehmannii (small-leaved Lilly Pilly) timber from our own backyard hedge.

We cut part of the hedge back, milled a few boards from it, and let them air-dry for about a year. Once the timber was ready, I turned one of those boards into this salt box.

J'ai fait cette petite sculpture en décembre dernier. J'étais pas vraiment satisfait du résultat, notamment concernant les ailes, les cheveux et les yeux. Je me suis offert quelques nouveaux petits outils pour Noël, alors j'ai décidé de reprendre le chantier. Sur la deuxième photo, on peut voir que l'ai déjà bien plumée. J'espère que je vais m'en sortir.
