1:19 through 1:49---- Now you're just showing off...LOL! Just kidding! If I tried that, everyone would call me lefty :) Awesome work Barn. I'm mesmerized every time I watch you carve. You sir are a true master!
Yes it does. I was watching Andy Spoons carving a spoon the other day and, as he sliced pieces off, the place he had just sliced was perceptibly lighter than the area next to it which he hadn't touched for a while. I can't remember what wood it was, I have an idea it may have been either Huon Pine or Silky Oak or, possibly, prunus.
Lol , your book "Spon" is sitting in front of me on the coffee table. I would never have noticed how many different carving techniques you used in this short clip , if I hadn't read the book;) The book goes back to the "Art Colt" in 3 days, I will have it finished by then;)
Barn the spoon why can't I carve spoons from fresh green wood I use dry seasons wood as I makes a spoon from green wood it splits a clue be appreciated
Random Fox , I’m not Barn, obviously, but here are some thoughts on preventing splits in greenwood as it dries. First, split your log down the pith and hew away the pith entirely - this is where most splits are generated. Next, carve your spoon to a relatively even and consistent thickness - this will minimize inconsistent drying and tensions in the wood. Lastly, let your spoon dry slowly, away from the sun and high temps. I hope this helps. Good luck.
I'm not an expert but you could try carving the green wood to a certain point then let it dry slowly before finishing the spoon. Keeping it in a plastic bag will help slow the drying process but I think you need to let it breathe now and then. Also as the other comment keep out of the sunlight.
I carve spoons, and I can testify just by watching this, that he is an expert! Highly skilled control! A pleasure to watch! Thank you for sharing!
박수👏👏👏몇 번이고 계속 보게 되네요👍👍👍
Nicely done Barn, I do like the way you use that nice big spoon knife.
Thanks for posting.
Great spoon and great vid! Love how u threw in a few shots of stropping the twca cam
Brilliant! Thank you Barn.
How do u avoid tear outs on those long handle strokes. I'm running to grain changes that go smoothly until a certain point.
Amazing axe and knife control! Nicely done.
Great video !
Who made the hooked blade ?

Great video, so relaxing to watch, mad skills mate
Your videos are amazing! I live in Finland and i make spoons and much more. I took my wood from my back yard.
Great skill master carver! As you do the soon in one go, I am wondering if the wood doesn't oxidize in the light (getting darker on the surface)?
Yes it does.

It's the smallest one from Gränsfors Bruks.
