Wooden spatulas, going mad,

Today started taking my wife to Kamakura for
her regular gathering with friends.

The first thing I did upon returning home was
to sort out my redundancies. My guesstimate is that
with a particular wood I am going to show you below,



I probably have close to one hundred of them...
These shown here are only part of what I have got.
They have been cut to the same length.

They were selected because I saw that there were
forks intrinsic in them, that is, if I make a little
effort, unwanted mass can be removed, and out emerge

my little forks!

However, redundancies come in in two more tpical
forms. They are shown below.



These make me think, twice over... Am I going to do
anything at all with these? If so, what the hell am
I going to do?

Take a look at the following illustration.



I am obviously thinking in terms of two small SPs and
two spatulas. But, is this not ridicurous?

If you make one SP, you then get two side redundancies.
What I am trying, (really?) is to produce four more
small pieces. Am I going mad? I think I am...

Anyway, part of what I did today was to round the
edges of dark walnut spatulas, as shown below.



They are not complete yet, need sandings and for
that matter, those I made yesterday and the day before
are not complete either, wanting sandings.

On top of those, there are those fork embryos I made today,
as follows I must be going mad!



For the next few days, I am not going to cut materials,
nor am I going to to do heavy sanding work. Weather is
expected to be rainy and I will dig in in my workshop and

only do light sanding work. I will then move on to
my piker knife forks, I think...
