I could not get much done today...
For a start, I had a late night before and woke up
late, then, I had to take my son to the airport.
Coating continued, though. They are looking lovelier.
What is seen below is all I could in terms of fabrication.
These are the handle wedges with trenches cut in them, into
which what is seen below will dig.
Looking just like what is seen below. Now, even these have
problems, which I will need to address, separetely. One of the
issues is the fine gaps left between the wedge pieces
and the knife pieces.
How would I address this imperfaction? Simple, rub in some
fine wooden powders (sanded powders) with a bit of glue and
wait for the whole thing to solidify.
These schematics above show more of the fundamental problems.
Should I stick with the current configuration as depicted in A?
The problem with this is that the front end doops too much
to my liking.
Dotted areas indicate buttered areas, adding to the shift of the
centre of gravity towards the tip. Do I like this square piece
sitting at the front end?
The whole thing tends to droop. What if I changed the configuration to
B, so that I now have a conventional shape of the knife blade?
It may be better, in the end.
The only reason I have a square area with the knife end
(front end) is that I have, without thinking too much about it,
inherited the shape, orginally meant as a flat and square
spoon, into my current self-standing knife configuration...
I am suffering from it now, I think. I could reshape the
square(rish) area into something rounder, but, with
so many of them having been shaped into the current
design, I would rather not...
My intuitive thinking is that all these will have to be
given away, as gifts. Another reason for doing just that is that
I have found that it is awfully difficult to control the
draping angle, that is the angular separation with respect to
the table top. As a matter of fact this is bound to
constitute the biggest problem...
I am feeling alone..., but,
