Another period of wood-scarcity has come to an end. I have been given a nice lump of plum wood, and have also been promised a good portion of the trunk of the tree when it comes down one of these days. To me that means one thing: Plum wood kuksa`s with my new adze! Before the trunk is mine to pick up, I`m making eating spoons. The wood is really lovely to carve and to look at. Here are some images I took while carving a little crooked spoon yesterday.

| Time to go spoon something with it! |
I hope I can find some more time this week and get back into a carving habit. I have not done it as much as I`d like in the last couple of weeks.
