    Green woodworking or green slöjd! Watch this video to see how I carve a greenwood maple serving spoon, with a variety of tools I use for making my crafts. This setup works really great for me because I don't use few tools that will cause my hands and joints to hurt and wear out! It's a tough job to carve spoons, but you now.. I love it :)
    I do this full time so I have do it as effective as possible.
    Spooncarving success = Proper tools, techniques and razor sharpness!
    Carving a maple serving spoon with:
    Julia Kalthoff axe
    Hans Karlsson 35mm adze
    Svante Djärv drawknife + shavehorse
    Nic Westermann 65mm twca cam
    Morakniv 220 splitting knife + sloydknife 106 + 163 open spoonknive, which I've made single beveled.
    ASMR to the people!

    Jonas that is some of the best tool control I've ever seen. I'm an old school joiner & carpenter & a good axe has always been by my side, so I truly enjoyed watching you make the spoon. I would love to see a few photos of your spoon carving horse as I want to make one. My carving horse isn't suitable for spoons. Thanks for sharing. Hugo.

    • @formgjortbyJonasAls
      @formgjortbyJonasAls  Před 4 lety +3

      Hey Hugo!
      wow, that means a lot to me. Thank you! It's so important to have full control of your tools, especially when it comes to the axe which is a wonderful tool, but also really dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.
      The shavehorse is a Svante Djärv, from Sweden. I think they're some of the best. For me at least.
      I'll take some pictures and post it on my Instagram soon. Can't post anything here yet.. But I'm working on it. Need 500 more subscribers and 2000 more viewhours. I might get there before newyears eve i Hope :)

      Moraknives are the the best alternative, because its good quality compared to the price. I would never ever ever recommend Beaver Craft. Its cheap, low quality tools. You get what you pay for. Pay a bit more for Moraknives and you'll get better tools.

      when he sawed through it, I thought the same thing, doesn't look too green!

      but then when he put it on the shave horse, it peels away like green wood does

      If it is for carving, it’s out in the woods. Freshly carved unseasoned wood.
