Looks like you could teach it! WOW!First try at a spoon.
I’ve been wanting to do some spoons like that, most of the ones I had done were hand carved. I saw a video on making those, did you remove one of the jaws on you Chuck to hold it or make a fixture?First try at a spoon.
I saw a Michael Hosulak ladle demo. Between centers turns a ball on one end and the handle. Mounts wood in a chuck turns a jamb chuck to hold the ball and notches the rim of the jamb chuck for the handle. Hollows the ball to make the ladle bowl.I’ve been wanting to do some spoons like that, most of the ones I had done were hand carved.

Hasn't killed me so far! Don't think I'm going to go any thinner. Put more epoxy on the inside and outside. Will let it cure overnight and will see.

Cedar crotch. I bumped the rim with the gouge and blew it apart. I got it back together, but the crack is clearly visible. I didn't have a good method of clamping it. Unfinished, but with Yorkshire grit applied.

I have a friend who is a caricature carver, I put him to work😁You could put a diorama in there!
Fast. Takes me longer to apply painter tape on template and bowl, wait for hot glue to dry, then to cut with router. What are your shortcuts?Popping in a plethora of (perfect?) pewa.
It took 22 minutes to cut 13 pockets.
