Turning Wooden Scoops
This demonstration covers the process of turning traditional wooden scoops using spindle turning techniques. Emphasis will be placed on tool selection, body position, clean cutting, and efficient shaping to produce smooth, flowing forms with minimal sanding. Participants can expect to gain a clear understanding of scoop design, proportions, and techniques that can be applied to a variety of functional projects. (Inspired by Richard Raffan style scoops.)
