Carving a wooden spoon | old beechwood 

Thank you very much, I'm happy you find it inspiring.

Thank you! Thats the way i prefer - using those quiet sharp hand tools where you can really see how well these work.

S. L. A hook knife and a sloyd. 25$ on Amazon. Means to sharpen and strop. And a hatchet. All ya need bud. Just make sure you’re good an sharp or it’s no fun at all. Not to mention, a sharp blade is a safe blade.

Thank you, I'm glad you like it.

Prove it , I don't see any videos all talk 🙄

What oil do you recommend as a better option?

@@passionatefruit164 drying oils: raw linseed, walnut, poppy seed, tung oil. All food safe and won't go rancid over time. Olive oil goes rancid, spoiled some of my earlier pieces. Live and learn S87WOOD

@@somika87 i raccommend all type of mineral oil and if you dont want to spend too much you can also use baby oli!

Baby oil? That is not a food-safe oil. It has added fragrance added to it. Stay away from anything with added fragrances unless it is an essential oil, but even that I wouldn't use. Mineral oil or hemp oil and bees wax blended together works beautifully. I can send you a sample of mine that I make if you like.

Joel Roberts Thank you. I would like to start wood carving. I hear the best tools are quite important. Would you kindly post a link to some of the basic good tools to start with? I would appreciate it very much. Thanks again 🙏

Tim Allsup Fender also made a lefthanded guitar to Jimmy didn't they?

But you can wet it, sand it again and it will be fine

2KDSurvival I need one too, to go with my favorite soup/cereal/whatever wooden bowl. But I want to try making my own spoon now.

Thank you, I am glad you like it.

Rick Schuman he seems to have pulled it off! LOL

I'm just trying to figure out what he has against a coping saw

Are u fucking serious it’s a hand saw what is he going to do slip then just keep sawing give me a break nobody has ever cut themselves with a hand saw

Some people just dislike it for no reason. Trolls

@@AlyxAesthetics true but I think it's mote of the fact that he goes through all that sawing and chiseling when it would have been way faster with a hatchet, knife and hook knife/gouge. Check out Barn on the Spoon Club channel. That's how it's done

@@mikeg2046 agreed, and not using a mallet(or other method of stock removal, for efficiency) or bench vice (for safety, see my other post regarding chiseling toward the hand holding the object)...and many such logically valid reasons to dislike this, having nothing to do with the end result, nor the desire to troll.

It is from Europe but I am not sure if it is red beech, although it has slight red "stains" in it. The grain is beautiful with the coloring in it but unfortunately the piece you see in the video is the last one I have.

You should go hang out with the guy in the comments that thinks you can cut yourself with a hand say the way he is using that chisel is by no means dangerous there was almost no lateral pressure on the chisel it was pretty much all rotational torque it would be very hard to cut yourself like that. bunch of fucking pussies in this comment section scared of hand tools

@@Amplefii and one, who assumes every person knows how to properly handle hand tools. i will agree with you on the chisel but the pull saw on the other hand if someone doesn't know how to handle any saw really could have it jump, and rake across a finger or two resulting in tiny cuts across them. it may not be deadly or extremely painful but can be discouraging for someone new to hand tools, which is why it's always nice, and the smart thing to do by educating in a proper, and non-hostile way that you've obviously failed to do. hand tools can be just as dangerous if not more so than any power tool because they depend purely on human error, and judgment, and if you've never used a hand tool there will be a right way to handle, and use them properly to make sure you're safe and you have a good end product.

Thank you, that was my first one ever. And it's the same wood.

Thank you. Greetings from Czech.

Thank you!

Gorgeous!!!

Thank you

A reasonable concern

ITS A HAND SAW! If you cut your own finger off with a hand saw you prob deserve it you have to keep sawing and sawing and sawing to do any real damage

@@Amplefii The point is to avoid ALL injuries. I've had a nasty gash from only one swipe from my saw (razor sharp as they should be) when it jumped out of the kerf after striking an undetected, deeply embedded metal fragment. You never can predict everything. Only a fool is willing to risk an injury of any size when councilled against what might cause it.
