My wife had a fork in the motorhome that was (I think) a training fork. Square ended tines that wouldn't pick anything up. She continued to give me that fork after repeated complaints about it's uselessness. This is what I did with it. I told her "if you like it that much--wear it."Attachment 13233
Not quite the work or quality of your work, but it got the point across.

How to make feathers from teaspoon handle.
https://youtu.be/zE_47lkxJx4
Very inspiring Tuomas! Love seeing how you do the feathers. I've not done the kind of work you do with the spoons w/stainless. It seems you heat the spoon before you work it. Is this true, does it change the temper or just take off some kind of finish? Now that I have a functional rotary tool I'm thinking of trying my hand at some these spoons. Even though I have an oxy/acetylene rig, that little torch seems very handy too.
Thanks. I like to make something way different sometimes, spoons bought from flea market are very cheap material.
Heating to 200-400 of celsius makes cold formed (<- translated from finnish term don't know actual term in english)stainless softer. Specially cheaper ones, wich are mainly just stamped without any heat treating afterwards.
I (believe) that i have noticed difference.
Tried more "Manly" design.. friend asked a heavy metal styled spoonerly.
