What size spoon gouge do you use.......

[Jack Gaskins]

Was wanting to make a few kitchen spoons for the wife's baking hobby. I was going to turn the handle then use a spoon gouge to carve the bowl of the spoon. Anyone out there made some this way and if so what tools do YOU use.

I turn spoons and spatulas on the lathe to shape the handles with some beads or coves. The spoons I use a Kutzall spoon carver in an air grinder then finish them off with hand sanding. Hope this help you with yours.

I have made a few like this, I use a bent knife to carve out the bowl.

I use the same curved knife as Mike but mine haven't turned out nearly as nice. Those are some beauties!

Those are all very nice from all of the above posts, you all did great on them!
