Default I'm on a roll here

Here's my second spoon, same as first, cherry wood, all power carving and finished with mineral oil from the drug store. This one measures 11 inches. I think I'm hooked on making spoons, hope I don't forget how to carve.

Hi Cliff, You are getting to be an all around Carver. Good job Cliff. You should be able to knock off a bowl of soup in no time with that baby. Ha Ha. Stay with it Ole Buddy. Merle

Thanks to all for the kind remarks. I'm really enjoying this spoon carving. To begin with, using power is so much easier on my dang arthritic hands. The only thing, I had to set up 2 dust collection stations but both are working real well with just using my vaccum cleaner so I'm safe (I hope).
