Wooden spoon in under 10 minutes

[thamesandhudsonvideo]

Great video, very useful and relaxing viewing (apart from the plane noises - will we ever escape them?!). We've just finished a video called 'Sculpting spoons and fire bowls', it's an interview with wood artist-maker Nic Webb in which he talks about his personal connection to wood and shows us around his studio in Camberwell, London.

Just found this video. If no crook knife is there a good alternative to carve out the bowl? thank you

[survivingoutdoors]

@truckpipe It can be burnt out with small embers from a fire, or ground slowly on a rough stone. Even used peices of flint in the past, gives a rough spoon but useable.

Impressive knife control. Nice background music that doesn't over-power the best music of all (mother nature). The PIP was a bonus that really shows what you're doing. Thanks for the lesson! Subbed

really nice and fast spoon.

i just started making those but i don't have a crook knife. i mostly use my f1 or my mora 860 clipper. i just do it to see if i can. but carving out the bowl is a real pain...

good video

thanks



[winnipegdiver]

very cool video enjoyed it very much

the information was also good

i was thinking of buying my first hook or spoon knife just not sure if i really need one or not it does seem to make carving out a lot easier

[survivingoutdoors]

@winnipegdiver Thanks for that. The crook knife I use is made by Frosts, it certainly makes gouging the bowl out a lot easier. I guess you could get by without it using flint or even hot embers etc, but then maybe thats for another day!

[christo7735]

I really enjoyed that video. sad to say i have carry a spoon in my pack for years. i thin i may have to try this out...

[survivingoutdoors]

@christo7735 Thanks, good luck with your carving.

[liketadied]

Thats awsome ,I gotta try to make one !

[maveraver]

Good job Tim, doesnt matter what it looks like imo, if it does the job it's designed to do, then that's all that matters.

[survivingoutdoors]

@maveraver Thanks for that. Of course given a bit more time it can be smoothed off, but thats just cosmetics.

[ConnerPlainLiving]

That was first rate video making. Thank you.

[TheBeebopper]

Good to show it's no bother with a hook knife or gouge, but what if these are not available? Does it really matter when not entertaining? If you are eating a proper mealworthy soup then a fork or spatula could be enough, drink the liquor from the cup/bowl or soak it up with bread. Mmmm, the crusader cup looks kind of good for real soup making, at least on a wood fire.

[survivingoutdoors]

@TheBeebopper Good point but what if there is no bread, or flour or pot? The list is endless but I will hopefully cover tools you can make out in the field at some point. Cheers.

[bearpatch1]

and handling, my friend a 7-star piece of talent and work, thanks,---JC
