How to Make a Ladle | Episode 2

Don't forget to check out woodworkingmasterclasses.com for more projects, just like this one!
Shaping any wood has a therapeutic effect on all of us, and this ladle is no different. With the bowl scalloped, we now focus on shaping the handle using tools ranging from flat chisels, saws, card scrapers, and rasps.
Remember, when you're shaping a handle, you use just the same tools and techniques as you would for the neck of cellos, violins, and guitars.
By the time you have shaped your handle, you will feel relaxed and satisfied.

Glad you're doing better. it's hard to find a youtv or magazine for hand tools only.

[@JonDunnmusician]

Wonderful Paul liked seeing how you bend the measuring device and you can't keep a good man down this shows that good triumphs over evil- glad you are feeling better

[@robertberger8642]

Glad to see you are back in the shop! You’re moving well; I didn’t see pain. I’m so happy for you, you look like you are recovering very well!

[@jeffbrooks9815]

Hi Mr. Sellers, just heard about your accident. I'm hopefull it wasn't too serious. I will keep you in my prayers. Thank you for all your teaching.

[@PeteLewisWoodwork]

Good to see Paul back doing what he loves. I have to be honest, this project is relaxing to watch but way beyond my abilities (and patience) with shaping tools. So much easier to walk into a shop and buy one but obviously nowhere near as much fun - even if it does go a bit off kilter! I once carved a little boat (to use as an ashtray) from a length of 4x2 with just a block plane and chisel, thinking it would turn out rubbish but it came out good and my partner at the time loved it, so I may have a crack at this one rainy day - or month.

[@happycats5223]

Hope you’re feeling better now Mr. Sellers.

[@flash7355]

Just when my spoonmaking time of the year started nice. Just made some spoons.

[@MCsCreations]

Really beautiful work, Paul! 😃 It's great to see you back at it! I hope you're well! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@9111logic]

Nice to see you feeling well again, we've been worried about your accident- Thanks for sharing this video 🙏

[@geoffreyboyling615]

Huh! Putting a block of wood under the handle to support it even though the spoon is in the vice -- so simple and obvious, yet I would never have thought of that myself - thank you.

[@thomash7117]

I love your work. May I suggest watching Andy Spoon carve a spoon using green wood

[@yukongtv]

a very cool trick for making spoons

[@donwilliams3626]

When you think of the time and energy that goes into the design of custom kitchen cabinetry, one feels the effort was valuable when you think of how a useful layout aids in meal preparation. The same love that shapes handmade utensils also enhances the effort put into meal preparation.

[@andyc972]

A joy to watch that smoothly flowing organic curved shape emerging from a machined squared block !

[@JesusvonNazaret]

perfect workpiece to learn grain directions

[@hubrigant]

I'm always amazed at the simple techniques I learn from your videos. Today, it was putting a block under the end of a clamped piece that's shifting down under pressure. So simple, and so obvious, yet I never came up with it on my own.

[@MrMikeEdie]

Nice to see you back.

[@marcus3457]

Glad to see you back at it again. Prayers for you and for a full recovery.

[@frankstoverpurebloodsaltya6441]

Thanks!

[@Paul.Sellers]

Thank you!

[@ecnaruaL]

you turned the work around to keep your panel saw on track during a deep cut! What a relief. Ever since you did the plane tote video when you somehow kept the saw on track while sawing from one side only, i have been crestfallen panel saw driver😉

[@shawn1229]

Really enjoyed the video Mr Sellers. I hope your recovery is going well.

[@samueldavis5895]

The video I didn’t know I needed. My roubo split top has been complete for some years now and I’ll have the chance to try this. Thanks Paul.

[@davidroberts5175]

Glad you are better now Mr Sellers.

[@pitsnipe5559]

This series is great! I’ve been wanting to make a ladle for a while now.

[@user-ur2yy7if3d]

I’m going to try to make this. Good to have you back Paul! To your health🍻

[@AcheForWake]

Get well soon Paul, I’m assuming these were all recorded before the incident!

[@filhil-bd9bk]

Хороший черпак👍

[@artswri]

Great video, great project, thanks. Glad to see you have recovered!

[@darylthomas4522]

a super dooper scooper

[@dpmeyer4867]

Nice

[@robertr4193]

Looking good.

[@gmac9667]

My forearms are burning from watching the first 5 minutes of this.

[@OzzieOzwald]

Just bought 2 Millers Falls no 9 hand planes from Facebook Marketplace for $40. They work great. But the thing I did notice on Facebook marketplace, a lot of people are over valuing their hand planes. I seen a few Stanley no 4 and 5 priced at $250 and up. Mind you the handle and knobs are either cracked or chunks are missing. The blades are greatly chipped. The body is covered in rust. Not your normal quick restoration will get the planes into working condition. And the listing would write "price is firm, don't offend me with any offers" 😂

[@tizianotognaccini7794]

step to step 😉

[@bigmarv333]

I ran into some older videos that say they are “members only” content now. Is this right?! 😢

[@charleswilliams5729]

Hope ya feeling better these days sense the accident

[@eugeneleith1927]

What do you call the rasp you using

[@DieCastoms]

How are your hands feeling, Mr Sellers?

[@yasarmevlutoglu776]

От трудов праведных не нажить палат каменных 😂

[@yasarmevlutoglu776]

Рашпиль жалко

[@AusterEngineer]

Would it be easier to make the ladle completely straight and then steam bend the handle to the desired curve?

[@tmsomers713]

What is the purpose of the super gluing?

[@robertbutler4393]

To fill the worm holes.

[@geoffreyboyling615]

To fill some small worm holes

[@JohnTBlock]

I'm surprised at the amount of rasp work you're doing, Paul... I'd picture you going after it with spoke shaves and chisels...

[@sigogglin]

i bought that same rasp after seeing him use it so much, it is worth getting (shinto rasp)

[@geoffreyboyling615]

@@sigogglin I have one of those rasps, it's a Shinto Saw Rasp; they're excellent and fairly cheap

[@emersonassis7154]

I have both Shinto rasp with a knob and like this without a knob...I used an old small plane knob (I prefer wood) and added in front part using a screw (a glued a dowel at big hole of knob and screwed that) the saw feeling of rasp on my fingers I don't like.

[@johnblackburn8147]

Mate it's 2024, nobody wants a wooden spoon 🤣🤣

[@appelster11]

What are you doing here watching this video then? Just heckling?

[@tinkertoiler744]

Another perspective is that its 2024, all the mod cons will soon be too expensive for some if not most to buy and yet the skills to use what grows for free have been forgotten.

[@mrteroo8953]

The 14th century called. They want their idea back.
