Carving a 20 Year Old Wooden Spoon... Into a Necklace Pendant!

  • I've noticed quite a few "how to carve a wooden spoon" videos out there, and I thought "why not carve a wooden spoon... into something else??" So, this is my spoon carving. With a twist. Quite literally!
    I started out tracing around this 20 year old wooden spoon for sizing, then I sketched out a few different designs within that shape. I was going for an abstract design, with nothing in particular in mind. As it turns out, it kinda resembles an abstract leaf. To me at least.
    This was a first for me, as I've never really carved a pendant before. I've done some pendant sculptures using poly clay before, but I've never done a carved wood pendant. But that's what this channel is all about.. doing new things! I hope you all enjoyed watching this, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask me in the comment section below!

    That just looks awesome in general!
    If I had to pick a side, I think the silver and brown side looks pretty neat. It looks like a piece of a cog fused with a piece of wood, and it feels like a symbol that no matter how far we advance, nature will always play a part in shaping us and our creations.

      Thank you! "No matter how far we advance, nature will always play a part in shaping us and our creations" very well said! ❤

    I like both, especially together on the same piece. But if I had to pick, gotta go with that classic wood stained side!

    @xx_PCCR_xx 4 года назад +1

    I definitely like the natural wood side. Especially with the finish you applied, makes its natural features and grain pop really well.
    It's a very beautiful piece and a good video too!

I've found some great stuff for less than a couple of dollars that I was able to completely change into something different. A "trash to treasure" kind of situation.

    Whoa! I totally dig the color palette you chose and I think having the option for authentic wood or the metallic reverse is great. There's duality in the design-- curves ending in points-- as well as in the face of each side.
    What was the name of that tool.. machine..jigsaw-like uh thing? I'm not accustomed to the names of tools, but is it like a band saw??

    I think this video may be how I found your channel! Bobby Duke was also carving pendants out of wooden spoons and said he got the idea from you.
    I actually just bought a Dremel kit myself (well, a cheap Chinese knockoff...does your handle get kinda hot when using the flex cord?) and I don't really know how to use it yet. Hoping to get lots of good tips from you two.

    • @RossTheRandom

    Hi Ross 👋 new follower, fellow maker in the uk.
    Giving you the same advice as Bobby, don't know if you know what I know, but let's give it a goooo 🤔
    So, the scroll saw can have a spiral blade on it that allows you to make tight corners without the restraints that a flat blade gives you (having to back up and slowly edge the turn) and makes cutting intricate designs out a whole lot easier... The caveat being that they are a little weaker so you just have to take it easy with them.
    They have them here in Blighty so I'm sure they'll have them in that there Amerikeeeee of yours ☺
    I love this! It's like when people make pallets out of old coffee tables 🤣🤣🤣
    Awesome work.
