Maker Faire Bay Area 2023
Hand Carved Spoons
Home: California, United States
We will demonstrate various ways to produce an heirloom spoon. We split logs into billets, which are shaped into blanks, from which the spoons are carved. We will demonstrate the use of chopping blocks, spoon mules and shaving horses (all of which we designed and built by hand). It is a popular element of our involvement that the public ask us a lot of questions about the trees on their property. Parents and kids can all take turns using our safer equipment, which is always very popular!
