  • Little late with this project, was supposed to be last weeks. The project is turning a pinecone into two coffee measuring spoons. The cone was dried fully in the oven before casting into epoxy.

      I hear you. After whittling spoons I now know the reason why we do this work. 1 labor on love 2 there is something very special about giving yourself to an object of that you’ll use and admire every day (coffee spoon). You get to smile at it and admire your time well spent every single day... in a weird way it is an expression of you and your soul. On a side note, you also start to look differently at mass produced goods. Mass produced and engineered with thought and care is different then mass produced and engineered with little thought or care.

      Music - NO, talking for the sake of talking - NO, I look at CZcams videos as an educational experience. How do you add a pine cone to resin? How thick should the walls of a wooden coffee scoop be? I would have preferred to have audio teaching me. For those who don't want audio simply set the volume to mute.

    • @SneakyCheeseThief
      @SneakyCheeseThief Před 2 lety +13

      @@jessetutterrow4320 I take your point, but I like the sound of the tools; all that stuff can go in the description. I do a lot of woodworking myself (nothing this complex); so I see the value of more specific instructions. But I also value these videos as relaxing experiences -- as someone who loves woodworking and art and the quietly personal aspect of creating something. And I'd hate for that to be ruined, even by more specific instructions or specs.

      Are they? The main thing about measuring is accuracy. And these dont looks like they've been craft for precise measurements. They are excellent, beautiful spoons, but you gotta cut the measuring part.
      They indeed are beautiful, but as someone who's profession involves "Selling stuff to baristas" I gotta say those folk are crazy when it comes to coffee. if you sell them a spoon thats supposed to have 7g and then they try it and its like 7,1g instead they get angry.

      The first thing that he did was remove moisture from the pine cone using the toaster oven, and then mixed up a batch of resin for it to sit in. The pressure pot prevented bubbles, and then he used tools to change the shape of the blank on the lathe. If you like this type of stuff, Peter Brown has some cool resin and woodworking projects.
