I have made a lot of spellicans in the last several of months. As you might be able to tell from these photos, I have started making them larger. Most of these are pine. I guess I got tired of using only scraps and being constrained by the size and shape of the leftover wood. So I cut and carved these from non-leftover pine. These are some of my favorites. I made one tiki head and I liked it so much that I had to make some more. The others are just plain fun. Why the spoon, you may ask? Well, I got some wood from a friend - Arizona Cypress. I carved the spoon out of it, but the wood is far too aromatic to put in your mouth. So it is now a toy.
