First Use of The Shavehorse

 I made a simple spoon this morning using the horse and the bench. MsBubba likes mostly flat one like this which is OK with me they are much easier to make.


I burned a big hunk of Walnut a couple of days ago with out thinking that it would have made a dozen or so spoon blanks. Of course when I pointed out we were burning over $30 USDs of Walnut MsBubba had a cow. I just had flat head syndrome.

    1. Mark,

      I know, I know. I'm not sure how it ended up in the burn box other than I put it there.

    1. Bob,

      In my defense, weak but it's all I have, it was badly split.

      It is leather, I'm not sure how long it will last but figured it was worth a try. The old horse was just wood on wood and that worked pretty good.

  4. Now you are ready to give online classes on how to make a spoon to save wood from the furnace. Time to go back to video? :)
