Mustard spoon carving template
A tiny condiment spoon for mustard, salt, honey or jam. The deep little bowl sits at a steep angle to the handle, so it reaches into a small jar and stands upright in it.

Carving tips
Because it's so small, it's a great way to use up offcuts and a good exercise in carving a steep crank. Look for a small crook or a piece where the grain curves with the bend.
Cut out the top view and trace it on the blank with the grain running along the spoon, as the grain arrow shows. Saw the outline, then draw the side view on the side of the blank for the depth and crank, and carve away everything outside the lines. Read more in How it works.
