The second step is creating the "rails" or "flats" of the bevel, so I work from 800-7k on the block. The tormek is to create the hollow grind 👌

I like the commentary style video with explanation of the cuts you’re making and why you’re making them. Explanation is very important to me to gain information while you’re carving. I appreciate your vast experience and the reason behind your decisions! Thanks for the video!

Hi Andy Great to watch this. My friend never goes into the wood- it leaves a furrow a few mm but I don’t get the lovely clean cut like you and so many others! Other people say fors don’t need to be sharp but I can split by hitting my axe- but not my froe. How sharp do you have your froe?

Hi Andy😊 I am trying to build a spoon mule myself. Does your spoon mule have an angle cut in the bottom of the opening for the two "clamp arms"? (Hope that makes sense 😆) When you push out with your feet the clamp arms are at an angle to the opening which looks like its at an 90 degree angle?😅
@andyspoons9 күн бұрын
I think I know what you mean? The clamp section is cut at a pretty aggressive angle so as to allow for a wider stance on the legs. I hope that makes sense!
@viggoblochmller61459 күн бұрын
@@andyspoons Got it! I made the top opening 3.75 " wide and 4.75" at the bottom. Then I made the angle by connecting those two points. That gives me about 1.25" max space between the jaws. Thanks for the reply! P.s.: My girlfriend and I really enjoy your videos and find a lot of inspiration for our own woodworking projects.😊🙏

@@andyspoons absolutely agree about sandpaper. I use Shinto to do general shaping around the handle of the spoon or to flatten the blank, before moving to the draw knife and finally the normal knife.

Re the ax- do yourself a favor. Pick a GB Swedish carver. You won't look back. No, it is not too expensive. It is worth every cent of its price.

@@andyspoons I understand the price might sound too high. But, it's way better to start with something designed specifically for carving. Because it will allow you to develop proper technique faster. For me, I was initially using a GB wildlife hatchet and Hults Brook camping axes, and it was a total waste of time (and money). The hatchet was sold so I could purchase the carver.
