Let’s see whats under all this muck. 👀 This is a kolrosing reveal. 🍁 #kolrosing #woodart #woodcarving #spooncarving #handmade #woodworking

A full length demonstrstion (trimmed and sped up at times) of axe carving a spoon blank from a section of maple wood. This video takes you through how I thin the wood with a carving axe, apply the crank (the bent part of a spoon), draw the template, and carve the blank to an appropriate size which will make it easier to carve by hand with my carving tools later. Less material = easier to carve. And maple is hard so this is key. I use two different hatchets, one is rather blunt, and the second is sharp and has a crisp edge, which I use a @Tormek to hone the edge of. I also use a @SilkyEurope saw to apply the stop cuts. The hand drawn template is rather ugly which is not ideal but I am out of pracrise. The rough template is fine though because I just need a rough shape and can adjust as I carve by hand later. The spoon shown at the beginning and end is what I carved using this blank later on. After that it will need further refinement and then some finishing touches such as kolrosing decorations, burnishing, and some tung oil. Happy carving. 🗿🍁 #spooncarving #axecarving #woodcarving #woodworking #handmade #handcraft

First spoon finished in months. Its good to be carving again. This is a maple wood eating spoon with a mountain range kolrosing design. This video shows a bit of me adding a design to this spoon handle. 🗿🍁 #kolrosing #spooncarving #handmade #handcraft #whittling #woodcarving

Around the bowl we go. I want one continuous, smooth edge and the are the first rough moves to try and achieve that. The tool I’m using is from @Slöjd Haus. 🗿🍁 #woodcarving #spooncarving #asmr #handmade #sloyd #crate #craft #carvemorespoons

I carve spoons from wood I find laying around. Have you ever tried woodcarving? You might enjoy it as a relaxing and creative passtime! 🗿🍁 #whittling #woodcarving #spooncarving #handmade #asmr
