    Default Just in time for Valentine

    I only got recently into wood carving and giving it a go. After a simple spoon and a small bowl I decided to try a love spoon for my wife.

    This is my result:



    The wood is campher laurel. I think the lines could have been a bit clearer and neater, but for my first one I am OK with it. At least it shows it was entirely done by hand [emoji6]

    Very well done.

    How long did it take to do, and what tools did you use?

    It took me about 7 days with about 1 hour each day.
    I mainly used this set of knife's and tiny chisel I made myself. The knife blades are from Beavercraft and the chisel I got from MCJing Tools.



    And I also used the hook knife from this set, which was a Xmas present.



    These, beside a coping saw and drill to cut the rough shape out. Plus sand paper...

    I did a little carving before, but not like this. I made a few pendants for my niece. That's all.
