Spoon Carving

We will be working with freshly harvested greenwood (wood that is still wet) from California. We will discuss what to look for when selecting wood, tips for spoon design & how to carve with confidence. Learn to safely use an axe, knife & hook knife, technique and carving.  Then design and carve your own wood spoon from freshly cut wood using only hand tools and imagination.  There may be time to complete both a spoon and butter knife. Spoon carving requires a fair amount of hand and wrist strength.  No carving experience needed.
