Thank you. Glad you like the channel. I think you can see the basket weave kolrosing as part of some of my kolrosing videos. You can also check out my Instagram account dane.licina. Lots of stuff there too. I do a straight and more complex basket weave. Start with the straight one. There is a bit of a learning curve but as with everything it's in repetition. Use scrap wood and have fun. Carve on 👍

@@joebananski654 Glad you like the videos. People get too fixated on the tools. I never felt the need to upgrade to a specialized kolrosing knife and pretty much all I saw is not something that wood be good for my kolrosing 🙂

Started with a Mora 106 for kolrosing long time ago and I'm still using it 🙂

It's wild cherry 🍒

Thank you. Glad you like my work 🙂

Depends really,it's a continuous constant stream of spoons for me, and takes many years of work to get to a point you can make them viably at a reasonable speed and yet with as high quality as possible

In this video you saw the axing of a blank, before that is sourcing wood, hand sawing and splitting. After axing I hand carve them and then they dry. Then come the finishing cuts and in the end decoration 🙂

Thanks. You get strange ideas when you're alone in the woods all day 😂

They are great 🙂

Thank you 🙂

Glad you liked the video 🙂

There are several of those on my channel of various spoons so check those out. I carve a cooking spoon in a couple of them. Thank you 🙂

So glad to hear that my friend. Enjoy them 🙂

Thank you. I had lots of practice. Just finishing the spoon today 🙂

@@danesspoons I was just admiring your work on your Instagram page. They are so beautiful!! I honestly could fill my crock with all of your spoons♥️

@@sandystewart1331 Thank you. Glad you like them. Let me know if you decide to get one. I make them to order 🙂

@@danesspoons that sounds awesome. Thank you!

Just hand wash with normal dish soap and air dry and use again. That's all. Kolrosing lasts as long as the spoon which is many years of use and it can't be washed out.

It certainly wasn't a boring day and I still managed to get some work done so all good 🙂

This is wild cherry 🍒 It's what I almost always use. My favorite 🙂

Thanks. Glad you like it. I'm quite satisfied with this one myself 🙂

Glad you like the videos. Have fun with making spoons. I must warn you that it can be very addictive once you start 😂

@@danesspoons Just retired so looking forward changing from little figures to spoons ,working with wood is addictive lol .

@@indianatone218 Sure is 🙂

Yes I do. I use a glass marble. You can see that in the video I kolrose the Dandalion. I forgot to film it here. Though that step is not a must.

I probably prefer them with kolrosing only myself although some do look really great with color. Some people prefer to have some color so it's good to have options 🙂

Glad you like it. I don't paint this design. I only paint some design if a customer prefers it. Some designs (like this one) come as kolrosing only

Glad you did. Thanks Hope you like the mushrooms too. I do many designs these days 🙂

It can be challenging and the road to here wasn't easy. I probably wouldn't recommend it to everyone. But it seems it's the only way for me to be fulfilled. And the forest has sure been a teacher. It will humble you fast and show you what really matters 🙂 Still, some days I think I just might be a little crazy. Take care my friend and enjoy what you have this moment. Thank you for watching 🙂

Thank you my friend. I can't complain 🙂

Usually not but it works with milk paint. I developed the process many years ago. I tested it back then in both versions and it works the same. I also apply another coat of linseed oil on the paint when it dries. Some of my painted spoons have been in use for years now and have held up really nicely. I was surprised when I saw photos of some after years of use. Of course all paint can be chipped with time depending on use. Kolrosing lasts as long as the spoon 🙂

@@danesspoons thanks for the prompt reply…I would not have thought to try that!

So glad you like it. They should ship tomorrow. Thank you 🙂

Thank you 🙂

Thank you. So glad you like them 🙂

Thank you 🙂

Thank you 🙂

It's a normal size. This is not a finished spreader though. After carving and finishing cuts it is just right for spreading. But I do smaller sizes and larger sizes than normal of all my work to those who prefer.

Thank you. So glad you like my work 🙂

It's wild cherry 🍒 Thank you 🙂

@@danesspoons cherry is a beautiful wood! Appreciate the reply back, thank you!

@@jwanner4 My favorite 🙂

I use Mora 106 wood carving knife for all my kolrosing. Never use a dedicated kolrosing knife. Thank you 🙂

@@danesspoons I have a Mora as well. I also have a Nick Westerman kolrosing blade that I need to handle. I just feel that a short handle will be better for me. Kinda like a butt chisel.

@@littleeaglewoodworks Try it out. What ever feels most comfortable 👍

Thanks. I can't complain 🙂

Glad you like it. It's a beautiful spot and spring so everything is so vibrant and full of life.

Thanks. Whatever does the job is fine but nice surroundings can sure help 🙂

You could 🙂

Thank you 🙂

Thank you 🙂

Thanks. I find them relaxing, the whole activity slows you down 🙂 Have a look at some of my long videos. Thanks for commenting

Only my baked series but I don't kolrose those. Check out my Instagram @dane.licina for all my work

Thank you. Yes, it's finely ground coffee. 🙂

It's great to be able to make something you will use and it's always such a joy to use it. Keep carving 👍

Thank you. Glad you like it 🙂

Thanks. Glad you like the color combo 🙂

Thank you 🙂

I use sand papers of various grits. Cheap and very effective with proper tehnique. All my spoons are knife finished so sharp knives are a must.

Thank you 🙂 Glad you like it.

Thanks. So glad you liked it 🙂
