I was asked (ordered) by the SWMBO to make some utensils for the in-laws for Christmas. They are turned, ground and sanded. The grinding was a done on my DP with a ball grinder. Sanding was mostly done on the disc grinder for roughing and then 1,2, and 3" soft pads on my lathe, in a Jacobs chuck for finishing and final shape. They are Hickory, which as you know is very hard. I intend to 3 d print some spoon rest to accompany the gift....
From left to right they are in sets of a stirring spatula and spoon, except for the far right two pieces. They large spoon is a request by the wife and the smaller spatula is for my neighbor that gave me some of the Hickory.
This is not the greatest photographic work I have ever done....but I was too lazy to set up the necessary equipment to do commerical grade photographs...my apologies.
Thanks for looking
