Carving tips
A spatula is one of the easiest kitchen tools to carve, as there's no bowl to hollow: it can be made from a straight board. Taper the blade to a thin, even edge so it slides under food.
Cut out the top view and trace it on the blank with the grain running along the tool, as the grain arrow shows. Saw the outline, then draw the side view on the side of the blank for the thickness and angle, and carve away everything outside the lines. Read more in How it works.
