Make a Wood Spoon

In this video I will show you how to make a wood spoon. Using hardwood off cuts from Walnut and Sapele, this woodworking project is one that most woodworkers can make in just a few hours.
As you will see with this woodworking project, no two wooden spoon have to look exactly alike, in fact its the imperfections that lend themselves to highlight the handmade aspect of the build - Enjoy!

Good video Jon, thanks for sharing with us.

[@FredMcIntyre]

Nicely done Jon! 😃👍🏻🥄👊🏻

[@patrickgatons]

I've been loving a few layers of walnut oil for finishing my spoons. Give it a try.

[@HouseScraper]

Thank you so much for this video I just bought the Arbortech ball gouge and I got the Arbortech precision carving system thanks to your video I will be making spoons and bowls.

Thanks David

[@besamemucho5]

Beautiful spoons...

[@lifefocus2168]

Good video, everything is simple and clear. Thanks.

[@superczech]

All those power tools to carve a spoon Jon - what next - a CNC laser cutter and milling machine? But seriously, I do enjoy your videos and this one is as good as all your others - keep them coming.

[@r.s.2525]

Why not, I carve spoons and bowls and kitchen utensils...and am tired as heck carving with knives...I carve with power tools and finish manually...

[@alexanderralph2504]

Always enjoy your more "teaching and explaining" videos. Thanks Jon. Great gifts for family this Christmas 👍

[@dukedominick7005]

[@clip6741]

That is going to be a wonderful spoon! I'm stuck with using chisels... But super cool to see a unique tool!

[@robertbourke7935]

Beautiful spoons, Jon! I do really enjoy your teaching style. Thanks for sharing the video.

[@03030367]

Thank you, good job.

[@Alan-Aus]

so much labour intensive on a spoon, next time when i am using a wooden spoon will handle with care (appreciate the hard labour behind the spoon)

[@johnhughes3963]

Nice work!

[@richardpriest6693]

Loved the way you were teaching how to make this spoon. You made it look so simple.

Beautiful looking spoons Jon! Thank you for sharing the video with us all.👌👍😎JP

[@erikj7006]

Great video and really nice work. You make it look so easy!!!

[@erikj7006]

Pretty experienced with carpentry. Took up carving about 6 months ago and I’m terrible at it. Was doing everything by hand (hatchet, carving knives, etc.). Just picked up the ball gouge and mini turbo plane kit last week. Gonna practice with the tools today. Some day I’ll be as good as you!!!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

That’s all it takes... time with the tool 👍

[@ironhide6283]

That spoon looks amazing

[@ottomaselli7762]

Thanks for the video , nice spoon design and finish !!!

[@stevecollins9450]

Great looking spoons, and your instruction was dead on, Jon.

[@brians5539]

Cool project! Always wanted to try power carving

[@claytonholton2749]

Great job buddy love your video! Now where can I find a bandsaw in the Philippines!

[@carlosc.8707]

Thank you for the video Jon very good and practical, Greetings.

[@urbanlumberjack]

Had a though that the saying you used at the end “happy with the way they turned out” had to do with turning things on a lathe! Maybe maybe not but awesome spoons!

[@MultiTom1956]

Very nicely done!! Arbortech has very many beautiful carving tools. Thank you Sir .😊

[@ArdenDIY]

Thank for the video

[@MartinMosman]

Thanks Jon.

[@sapelesteve]

Those spoons look terrific Jon, just like something that would have been done in the 17th or 18th centuries!

[@rml015]

Great project!

[@xCoolBreezex]

Those scribing skills are awesome

[@SpaceCadet403]

Gota love those yankee measurements five quarter

[@jairemymartin1]

I watch all your videos!!! Keep up the great work.

[@TaylorHubbell]

Awesome Jon!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Dude!

[@cbasbwoyETP]

Shout out to power tools! Great help from the video.. I would suggest some music or talking instead of the sped up sounds of the machines..

[@ARTESANIASWOODCARVING]

Asombroso, dale like al comentario si te apasiona la talla en madera. saludos

[@hildahernandez1874]

That’s work of art!!! Thank you Jon

[@chevyvega6622]

how is that single stage suction system working for the small shop? Have you upgraded to a different system?

[@omahukir5875]

Bagus mas bro

[@mauriciodelgado1]

Porfavor me podrías comentar dónde puedo comprar ésa broca redonda, gracias por mostrar tú trabajo ,muy bien realizado y bonito ♥️

[@amanjolkutanov6150]

Да это то что мне нужно.сколько по цене???долларов??

[@ericmwenda6197]

Good job. My suggestion, what if you try to use chainsaw disc mounted on 115 mm diam grinder to gouge the spoon? Think it could have been more easier to manage.

[@marilynhernandez2576]

They look great!! where can I get that wax?

[@cleokey]

Nicely done! Now for measuring spoons 😊

[@JonPetersArtHome]

😂👍

[@luegott2067]

Sieht schön aus ,aber mit Maschinen ist's immer leichter als mit der Hand.

[@stephenborchers1205]

Nice !!

[@chaysosaja56-24]

with all those tools is "piece of cake", but not all the people have power tools, !!

[@prathap.t8841]

very useful wooden spoon, your soft behavior is gifted one, explanation like a practical teacher is interesting, I like all great artist, like an artist you made very beautiful.

[@charlesharris4219]

only thing better then your facial hair, is your free hand skills... bravo!

[@rRobertSmith]

How do you sharpen it and do they come small enough for a CNC machine?

[@carmenleaf]

Hello, I have a question about the sanding process, do you think sanding paper is perfectly safe for utensil making? I am trying to make a cutting board with solidwood, but I do hesitate to use sanding paper to smooth it. I worry that the particles and the glue will get into the wood and eventually leach into the food. Could you please suggest? Thank you!

[@iliketobuildstuff7013]

One small thing I noticed you say 5/4 measures 1-1/6".. usually it should measure as the name suggests 5/4" or 1.25". Maybe a little less after planing etc but should still be fairly close to 1.25". Great video though I really enjoyed it. Thanks

[@hswing11]

great video

[@rogergreen2270]

I make my spoons in exactly the same way you just did here. Saves me a lot of time scooping out the wood like I had done before.

[@lolwazeid]

good job

[@Untamed98x]

Great content full of insight, Hello there, may i ask a keyword to buy ball gauge? I can't find it in my country, thank you...

[@badmandansanchez1823]

Great now I need a ball gouge, thanks. So at $110 for the gouge not to mention all my other tools that touch the project, I'm going to have to make 200 spoons to save money by making my own spoon🤣🤣🤣. But seriously really good video.

[@tooljunkie555]

Nice job Jon! The ball make it Seem like an easy way to make Spoon I've had the ball for 2 yrs and havent done anything with it yet got it on craigslist for 60$ new in pkg too!:)

[@JonPetersArtHome]

That’s a good deal Joe 👍 takes a little getting used but once you do it adds another language to your Woodworking vocabulary.

[@ericadventures5045]

Is it possible to router the handle instead of sanding it?

[@manyfeather2knives423]

At what rpm are you running on your router?

[@waleedobeidat6262]

After making a spoon, what is the name of the coating material.... if it is wiped... please reply.

[@Rectitude4U]

Some Walnut woods contain a chemical called juglone that has a laxative effect.

[@Joe.484]

Now do it without powertools :)

[@asungbarudy3326]

Sir ..what's the name of the tools u use for carving the wood.....?

[@mvmc1607]

TOP 👍🏻

[@muharremtop1560]

Can you tell me the name of the cutting tool you use here and where I can buy it? Thanks.

[@Chris-vc1dh]

What's that bit called to use on grinder please?

[@jrx2662]

you should make templates?

[@lanabobana7687]

The ball gouge 3000!!!
