I hope to see this spoon in a cooking video. “I’ll let this simmer and stir occasionally… hmm maybe a smaller spoon” 😛
I don't know if anyone has already mentioned this/or if it was a typo, but at 01:30, I think it was from WW1 and not WW2. Love these videos and keep up the hard work!
How can it be that I can't bring myself to watch a 6 part Netflix series but can happily watch Atomic Shrimp hack at a peice of wood for 20 minutes ? Haha
One day Eva is going to make that stupid rock float in the air.
Eva barks like an angry squeaky toy
It should be borne in mind that some woods are toxic and should not be used for cooking purposes
The fireplace is really interesting. Not too far from me in Louisiana there's a number of old structures left over from the war that served as training facilities, and you will randomly stumble across them as you make your way through the woods in the most unexpected places. That area also provided quite a bit of the timber used for the war effort. Unfortunately they cut down whatever was left of the old growth longleaf pine during that time, and it was later replaced with loblolly and other pine species. However, the forest service is doing an admirable job of restoring it to longleaf, and I hope that by the end of my lifetime I get to see stands of longleaf over 30" in diameter like the old growth would have been.
I have seen these in Ohio. They are sometimes found near lakes and ponds and are used by ice skaters in the wintertime. Probably not the explanation for yours…….
My local supermarket has been selling large bags of reduced produce and I've been told it's a fairly common practice. Well I've been buying one every time I go, pretty much regardless of what it contains as a challenge to see what I can make with such a bag. I was wondering if your local supermarket does something similar and if that might be a good video series idea? A reduced produce challenge if you would.
Love the spoon!
M’lord Atomic Shrimp, do you ever accept gifts from viewers, or do you have a PO Box?
I hope to see you again spoon 🤣🤣🤣
Do you have to be careful that you don't get splinters stuck in your hands when you carve wood?
I'm loving these random bits videos. Eva is digging and it sounds like she's saying; I'm ready, throw it, throw it now. And the spoon carving was pure inspiration. Too bad I'm rubbish at carving wood. Thanks for sharing this video with us.
hope to see you agan spoon ? lol nice play on words there sir
He's got a spoon! Love your uploads, so easy to watch. Thank-you.
Who else yells "Hi Eva!" when they see that cute pink jacket?
This… spoon, is starting to look more and more like a spitar or a gitoon. A most useful musical instrument mostly known in the underground circles of medieval bard-cooks. Very few speciment have survived the ages… I might be mistaking.
Mr Michael Shrimp! I'd like to thank you, because you introduced me to carving. I remember you had a video up years ago about a spoon carving and that got my curiosity up. Fast forward today I've been carving for about 2 years now, and have made at least 3 dozen spoons, sold some and gifted away some. I've also been carving small figures, toys, got into whittling, and even made a kuksa. Carving has been a godsend for me as i live in an abusive household and having something relaxing that just takes me far away is priceless. And it's all thanks to you! So from the bottom of my heart, thank you for changing my life and introduce me something that i absolute adore. If we ever meet, ales on me!
Ps: t is ironic me recommending a tool to my muse, but i think you'll love it. For carving the depressions, try the flexcut kn26. I started out with those terrible half circle gouges and it's been a pain. But ever since I got the kn26 it's been smooth sailing and it's a quality tool.
Nice mix of random stuff 🙂 That shore reminded me the ending scene of "You rang m'lord", which is somehow quite popular here in Hungary.
Feeling a bit sad, I have now caught up with all your videos. I really enjoyed binge watching a few of your videos at a time, especially during lock down and then after I had a busy day. Therefore watching this video is a bit bitter sweet.
Linden wood, you say… you didn't happen to notice a distinctive scent…?
Only Eva knows what her special mission was 😉
It would not surprise me to find out one day that you founded a religion where all of the teachings were parables that at their core were spoon based puns.
If someone had told me when I was a teenager that I would watch a man carve a giant spoon while cooking, I would have denied it completely. Yet here I am at 52 and quite enjoying watching just that!
The Norwegians have slow TV. We have this. Fantastic!
I thought 'Storm Eunice and the Giant Spoon' was going to be another animated story! 🤪
it reminds me of ruins we have in california of old mining towns, where the only thing that wont eventually rot is the fireplace and chimney, so you'll just see little chimney stacks standing by them selves amongst some yucca trees in the desert as you pass along the highway
Love everything on your channel!
what breed is eva?
why do you make spoons as often as you do? actually, the answer to that is presumably something like "I enjoy it", so, as a revised question, what about making spoons do you enjoy enough to do this same thing as often as you do?
Interesting 👍
I can't wait to see some of the finishing of the spoon. It's looking great! See you spoon, hopefully!
That's a cute dog
Eva is so happy when she digs!
I really enjoyed watching Eva on the beach. She seems to be having the time of her life! 😀
Put a truss rod in it and some fretwire on it and your spoon could double as a guitar neck.
See you again SPOON 🥄😉
Definitely an ASMR session 🥰
Good thing your not into building catapults or pirate ships!!
Spoons are useful, so are the other things but spoons are definitely easier to store!!
Cheers mate!!
I live on Cape Cod in Massachusetts we also had some good storms that have done some crazy damage. However that is the price you pay to live on the coast.
You know, I could really do with a hatchet.
In DT we were always taught to cut away from our hands and ever since I saw my mate cut his hand I've always worn welding gloves and cut away from me 😂😂
