Wood scoops have been used for centuries to "shovel" goods out of sacks and barrels. They are very easy to make and extremely useful in the modern kitchen. Think of how nice they would be to use for coffee beans (or grounds) or flour or dog food or anything else that you keep in large quantities in your kitchen.
Maybe it's time to make a couple for around the house?
Richard Raffian is one of our favorite turners. He's been helping turners learn about the lathe and turned objects through is books and lessons for years! He's an easy to understand, no nonsense turner and we love his projects!
In this project, Richard shows us how to turn a spindle into a goblet-like shape and then to make it into a scoop. This is an easy project and most turners will be able to make these wonderfully helpful items in no time!
We update our home page about monthly to feature a new project, a new article, and a new and hot tool. Then we create a newsletter to alert our subscribers.
We never let anyone use our list, and our subscribers have been wonderfully loyal as a result.
