Yesterday I could not upload any imagery.
I have since managed to sort this out and here is one of them.
These are more or less complete, requiring only
minor sanding.
I also managed to do a bit on the spoons, as per below.
Concave surfaces were not formed as of yesterday, but you can
see the side profile, which is not complete yet,
for easy handling of each piece for forming concaves...
You maby be able to see a faint reference line down the
length of the handle, indicating the eventual side profile.
Plus, a bean curd smasher, as here.
Actually, I obtained a new insight into groove
making with bean curd smashers. I may talk about it
later. It has to do with the positioning of my bit.
I think I do it right now, pretty much succinctly.
With the smasher you have three elongated holes.
Which one o you work on first? It is the centre
hole.
Once you have the centre hole done it becomes all
so easy to place your bit at the right position
on either side of it.
How, the, do you place your bit correctly on the
cetre line? You use a special width divider, which
I have shown you before...
Yesterday, I also managed to cut out pieces for the
brush hanger, as shown below.
What follows is all I managed to achieve today. Concave surfaces
have been formed and sanding of all surfaces is complete.
Tommorrow I will have to work with chopstics and
generally making sure everything is ready for coating.
A new set of polyurethane coating materials arrived
today, costing me more than JPY 10,000!
