Carving tips
The bowl is wide and deep, so start from a thick blank and hollow it with a hook knife. Leave a bit more wood at the neck than you think you need.
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.
