One of my favorite videos. You just feel ready to go and try it on your own after watching it, because this shows how to do it in an "easy" and usefull way not too many hard details. Love all your videos about how to carve spoons, but also like this one because it just calms me down watching you doing your work. Amazing, thank you for all the great videos on your channel ! Always a great inspiration.
What I particularly like about this is that A. You didn't trot into your workshop and fire up half a dozen different powertools - you went out there and SWEATED over it. No electricity. B. You didn't order it online - you made it yourself. I have a little teaspoon/eating spoon I made myself. No axe, no saw, no carving knife except my SAK. I used a LOT of sandpaper and I seem to recall I used my teeth at one stage. But I got it done and I think its BEAUTIFUL. So I understand PERFECTLY what you are doing here.
11:45 Sketching is undervalued by a lot of people. Here is where you can bring your idea half way into the real world. 3:22 Now THATS a saw. 22:06 That looks to be some sort of huge gimlet. ? 26:34 Looks a bit jiggly.
Very helpful. I've been wanting to make a bowl bench but I don't have a chainsaw and I wasn't sure how to best approach making one with hand tools. Cheers!
Nicely done my friend. Very similar to the one I built several years ago and still use today. I had problems with the leg angle when I drilled my holes. The thing still sets at an odd angle but it is functional.
Black raven co. makes awesome scotch eye bits to drill for the legs. I was having trouble finding some but, now I found what I needed. I am not a rep (paid or anything) of them.
I´d love to get some and use them on legs and holdfast holes. No, budget to get these kinda things though right now. I try what companies are willing to send me and decide if it is something I want to recommend. I never just make videos on stuff I am not convinced about and use all the time. Thank you for the great comment though!
Great question. It allows me to lean a spoon into it and have it rest on the top for maximum support when axing parts of the bowl. The notch has many more little uses to keep logs somewhat stable. Cheers
This is a great tutorial! Would be awesome if you talked a bit about the measurements taken in the beginning and if there is any typ/spiecis of wood you want to use or want to avoid doing a project like this? Definetly gonna try this! You think pike would be OK? I know I've got some laying around.
I'm very new to greenwood carving, and I've recently subscribed to you channel. Your videos are great, and I'm learning a lot. I have a question. At 22:45, you start stripping the bark off with an under grip on your knife, pulling the blade toward your body. It looked very dangerous. I know that you're a professional, so I'm not questioning your technique. But what safety measure could a beginner, like me, employ in order to make that cutting technique a little safer?
I put an info card in there for it. It is a silky Temagari I just made an in depth video about! Please browse the videos on my channel to find videos about every tool! Thank you!
@@woodsmansfinest3814 thanks for the reply. I saw the info tag right after I posted my question. I will definitely be checking outvmore of your videos. Thanks again. 🖒

Thank you for the sweet comment!
one of the best Axe work iv ever seen. this is so satisfying
The moment when, having finished the piece, you pat it and say goodbye to it at the end of the day - I so know that nice, warm feeling :) Precious.
Thank you Attila! I appreciate you mentioning that!

Since taken care off with a leg upgrade as soon as I got my hands on thicker stuff
Very helpful. I've been wanting to make a bowl bench but I don't have a chainsaw and I wasn't sure how to best approach making one with hand tools. Cheers!
I'm doing one of these, of course much smaller. Thank you very much for this and all the videos, you are a great inspiration for me and my spoons
That's a great idea. You can make those way smaller and still get lots of benefits! Thank you for the support!
Hej! Good job Man! Tank You!
Cheers for watching.
Skillcult recommended you so i am here and so far i like what see. Good work !
Cheerio that is very kind!
Love that guy! My kind of old school, no hype kinda knowledge and I've learned a ton from him!
Glad to have ya!
Brilliant!
most entertaining thing I haver watched. great skills and very good videography as well👏👏👏👏👏
That's super kind brother!

Same here... The legs have been always the thing with these as I prefer tripods, however, for what it is, it does suffice! Cheers
nice, useful and fun to watch
I appreciate that! Cheers

Maybe you could do a review of them.

Phew, need to catch my breath!
What’s the “v” notch in the end for? Thanks
Great question. It allows me to lean a spoon into it and have it rest on the top for maximum support when axing parts of the bowl. The notch has many more little uses to keep logs somewhat stable. Cheers
@@woodsmansfinest3814 thanks for the information
What was the end that you cut out for? You didn’t show it being used.
Different spoon shaping and bowl shaping positions.
This is a great tutorial! Would be awesome if you talked a bit about the measurements taken in the beginning and if there is any typ/spiecis of wood you want to use or want to avoid doing a project like this?
Definetly gonna try this! You think pike would be OK? I know I've got some laying around.
Nice one, thank you for this. Have to modify my small one now 😃. Man, how many knives had you on you that day 😅
Hahaha... half a dozen is definitely a charm...
Always great content my friend. I need to craft one of these!🍻Stay safe!
Thanks mate! You too!
Very nice. I had to go drink a cold beer after watching it;)
That's actually recommended.

Thank you! Look into use of crooked knives or mocotaugans. It is dangerous when no done with a body lock... Elbows tightly locked in.
Mora has a series of knife technique videos that covers the safety measures of each type of cut.
@@woodsmansfinest3814 Just curious, couldn't you just as easily cut away from your body and eliminate the need for a special body lock?
@@jerihoneywellart nah, the pull cut is the most widely used carving technique around the globe for a reason.
@@woodsmansfinest3814 Cool, I am not really knowledgeable about this kind of stuff. What IS the reason?
What is your large saw you use? That thing is a beast. Great video. Thanks.
I'm also interested in knowing this. Or other recommendations for similar items.
Thanks!

@@quintontyree2197 thank you! Very kind!
What size auger bit did you use? Thanks
This was 1" but I recommend 1,25 or 1.5"
@@woodsmansfinest3814 kinda what I was thinking.
What’s the notch at the end for?
an additional option for axing and clamping.
👌
Cheers
What type of wood is it your using?
Any hardwood could do!
День добрый вам
This type of bench is called a 'clave'.
Great, we call it a bowl mate.
