Woodturning Easiest Scoop Yet In This Series

Scoop

This post is best viewed right here. However, in case of gremlins, it is also posted on YouTube and FaceBook.

This scoop was demonstrated at SWAT by Sally Ault. I missed her demo. so if you have an opportunity to see her demonstration, do it. Meanwhile, this is my version. It is the easiest because there is no offset axis or wildly flying handle. Yet, there is one very important tip. Drill the hole for the handle tenon before sanding the interior or even earlier.

Again, my wood soft jaws played an important role replacing the need for a jam chuck.

The bowl is plum; the handle appears to be mahogany. Both are finished with shellac.
