Howdy folks-

I guess when I get a comfy knife, I get the urge to cut and carve! I have already expounded a little too much on the pipe, but here are a couple of others I cranked out tonight with the Brian Andrews bushcrafter. A simple spoon (I jacked up the handle a bit, it's too thin) and a copy of one of those awesome spork-things that MtnfolkMike has.

And here's me the morning after my last final exam (I passed every damn class too! Hell of a semester.) :D

great stuff Spooky, Good callon the spork I forgot about that I might have to try one of those myself...
 
those carvings look great :thumbup: those sporks that mtnfolk mike has are pretty cool, you did a pretty good imitation. congrats on the passing of the exams. i took my last ones today, but the highschool ones arent nearly as strenuous i would imagine. i am in a few college level classes also, and those exams were considerably more difficult. but, there is no better way to relax after a final than a bit of wood carving.
 
Nice stuff Spooky. Ha - I just gave out my final exam today. I had this one girl come in prepared for a hurricane. She plopped a bottle of Jolt, bottle of gatorade and bottle of water on her desk. Also had a big stack of candies. About forty pencils and this giant eraser. She proceeded to use up about half of the giant eraser during the exam. I was very amused but at the same time, worried that she would pull out a siltarp and ask for more time. Yeah - she stayed the whole damn 3 hrs even though everyone left 2 h after the start. Now I have 50 short answer/essay exams to mark :(

Congrats on passing all your courses!!
 
Love the pipe, man!:thumbup:
The other stuff is cool too but the pipe is especially cool.
How did you bore the hole in the stem - split it, trough it and bind it back together?

Congrats on the exams.:thumbup::thumbup:
 
I was convinced 'til the last pic.

Spooky? not really. You could use a date with a razor and a hair brush though. :D All in good fun of course. I look like I've been draged through ten miles of thumb tacks and broken glass in the morning.

Congrats on the finals.
 
Thanks guys! These were a lot of fun. Gonna take the spork camping next time and see how well it works. It was a really quick carve, too.

Jeff- You nailed it on the pipe! Split and trough, coal burning combined with bowdrill+sand to get the bowl. Works great, too!

The finals were the second to the last I'll ever have to take! I've got a bachelors, this is my third year of pharmacy school (half way done too!!!!!).
 
great stuff Will...:thumbup: i love those sporks...:D they came out great...

congrats on passing all of your exams too...:thumbup::thumbup:
 
Great job brainiac. Nice carving, and awesome that you get a break now. That is always nice!!
 
Those look great. I think I'm gonna have to break down and copy your copy of Mike's sporks. (that was confusing)
