Hey Zed! I really appreciate your IN DEPTH INTERVIEWS. it's almost like being there and asking the questions myself. Also you are most skillful with your camera angles and detailed zooms.
Thanks for posting this video. As a novice spoon carver I have found the tips very helpful and it has given me both the confidence and incentive to try to do more with my axe rather than just sawing, carving and sanding.
That's awesome to hear and worth mentioning that I have all of the tutorials listed on this page for easier navigation - zedoutdoors.com/video-tutorials
tried and failed many times, but my spoons are now starting to shape up like the ones in the video, really appreciate the passion zed has for doing these videos, nobody else makes content this good. Perks of that adhd brain of zeds! detail detail detail! cheers zed
Warms my heart to hear about your carving breakthrough and perseverancer paying off! I know these long format videos are not for everybody, but my aim is to encapture as much detail as possible so that folk like yourselves can learn from the pros like Owen. Happy carving my man and stay blessed ~Peace~
Another excellent video. Owen explains everything very well and is clearly very skilled. A video of him wood turning would be interesting. Thanks again. Good job.
Another excellent tutorial, and I send my thanks to you Zed for your excellent filming of it and to Owen who did such a precise and clear job of explaining all of the steps in completing this unique and lovely spoon. Spot on. I now must try carving one of these spoons. Cheers, Michael O. Alabama, USA
Sincerely appreciate your kind words and worth mentioning that I have all of my tutorials (of which there are many) listed on this page for easier navigation, hope they help you in your carving journey ~Peace~
Thanks Zed for making these fantastic informative videos. And also thanks to Owen for sharing his knowledge. I am one of the lucky once that have Owen for mentor, teaching dolphin spoon at spoonfest last year. I wish you all a grate summer holiday and happy carving.
Fantastic tutorial zed , this guys craftsmanship is awesome, very informative, lots of great tips & techniques. Really enjoyed thankyou both for sharing it's really helped and inspiring me to learn and carve. Thankyou so much
Ahhh, a very fine video indeed, mate! 😊 Love watching these long duration vids while carving, it's nice listening to something interesting without the need for my replying 😃 Also nice watching others work to see how they do things, pick up a few tips on how to improve myself and what new things to try. So thank you, and have a fine week 👍🖖
Thanks zed for another awesome video brother. Please can you let me know where I can get a pole lathe from thanks again brother and keep up the good work 👍👍✌
Hi Ray if you watch a pole lathe video series I did with Peter Wood I cover the pole lathe in detail with him and how you can go about acquiring one ~Peace~
When that first chip hit the camera I thought what would that have been like in 3D. Then he said you should start filming in 3D, great minds thing alike.
I know it's from a Year ago Zed but what a great informative video, I was also quite impprest at the amount of spoons he can do in a day. At the end, you were holding on to that spoon like it was glued to your fingers, did you get away with it ?? :-)) All the best Les.
Fantastic vid zed ..really enjoyed every minute...Owen grest to see you in action..follow you on insta and sound nothing like I thought you would with a name like owen Thomas!...brilliant tutorial ..looking forward to the next ;)
Seems to me that for production speed and reliable reproduction, using a saw cut to aid with axing out the handle would be the way to go. Obviously Owen's got his system working, but I know I'll be using the saw in there ;)
Who needs a spoon these days? a wooden carved double egg holder is where it's at these days ;P tnx for sharing though, surely some of the same techniques will be useful for the above :) ... ~ peace !

Haha! it was like shrapnel from a world war 2 film whilst filming this ~Peace~
@@Zedoutdoors I bet. It sure looked like it to me.

Haha! I tried but I wasn't quick enough ;-) ~Peace~
My wife just gave me shit for carving on the living room carpet. Your sound is that good!!!😂
Haha! rock on Rick! :) ~Peace~

I use a saw too but as you know each person has their own preference that works for them ~Peace~
Another excellent video Zed!! One question though, when are we getting a video of YOU demonstrating these skills you've been learning? LOL
My man! I have videos planned over the summer doing lots of woodworking projects so will film it then ~Peace~
Who needs a spoon these days? a wooden carved double egg holder is where it's at these days ;P
tnx for sharing though, surely some of the same techniques will be useful for the above :) ... ~ peace !
Double egg holders video is coming soon ;) ~Peace~
Has he a youtube channel ?
Alas no but he is on Instagram which I have linked to in the description below the video ~Peace~
Why is it called a cawl spoon, what does cawl mean

Great vid but just to clarify wetterlings are still there they are just manufacturing grandsfors 👍
Ok cool appreciate the clarification John thank you ~Peace~
@@Zedoutdoors epic vids man keep up the great work 👍
молодцы ребята!)
Спасибо за просмотр ~Peace~
Sycamore is used as so as not to taint the food
Possibly but inherently no woods taint the food, it's the oil applied to them that taints them ~Peace~
Horse chestnut yew laburnum and many other woods are a danger to health
Some other woods like oak can impart off flavours
Those were pretty fast dislikes.
Those were from people who prefer metal spoons ~Peace~
