Scott, you can certainly turn out a fine piece, be it a spoon or a spatula. How long does it take you?

Sanding is what takes the longest.....couple 2, 3 hours. Maybe a little more.

Love that plum wood Scott. That's a beauty.
Another mullberry wood spoon. The handle is crooked because of the wood grain direction in the spoon. It actually works good in the hand even though it doesn't look like it.

Nice spoon Doug! I tried to make one of those match stick flowers of yours this evening on the couch. ::doh::
Ended up with a pile of splinters & one small cut on my left index finger. ::dang:: ::super_happy::

Thanks! Sorry to hear that. Start on a corner just slightly down from the very top. Then do another just to the right of it and another just a little bit to the right turning it as you go. I highly recommend at least a decent leather glove on your left hand.

Ok Thanks for the tip Doug! As soon as I get brave enough to try it again, I'll wear a glove. ::tu:: :mrgreen:
