Giant spoons and Chinese spoons

Today I put my idea into practice. That is, I
deliberately sabotaged the coating on most of the
current lot and in their steadapplied

the first coating on the next lot. No photo.
I also realised that most of them are simple
forc-knives, legacy generation by their type.



3 images here of the deep cavity spoon I showed you
yesterday. I like it the way it is, except perhaps
that it is a little small.

But then, I do not want to work on kitchen
utencils. My area of work is squarely table
cutlery. Deep cavity spoons included.

Yes, this is a very weak excuse...





Most of the afternoon was spent on concaving
short stemmed Chinese spoons. There are some more
outside the photo range.

Here, I am very pleased, pleased in that having
two identical carving tools helped me to get them
done without taking operational breaks.

It is a revolution, it indeed is! In fact, I
was able to make the best use of the time left
before the operational time limit and

worked on the deep cavity thing, as shown below.



Definition is not good, but the cavity is there. There are
two problems here. One is surmountable. That is I cannot
make the cavity walls too thin, as the whole thing is

connifer. I will have to sand down the inside walls.



More of a problem is this photo.



Conchita, what you are looking at it is the carving bit
at its maximum protrusion from the chucking device.
It is not long enough to reach the bottom of the

deep cavity I have been talking about. What I will
have to do is to maximum use f this arrangement and
use the sanding cone I showed you earlier.

The cone is long enough. However, I really need
a coupler.

I will be using them when I computerise my machine tools.
I could make one for myself, but the mere thought of time
rejects me... I am busy enough, already.

On the sales front, yes, I delivered some more to shop 1.
Apparently, my pieces are selling well there. Good to hear that.
