He wanted to come out so took pretty much the dark red heart wood from a chunk of apple starting a small spoon not sure if it's gonna be a soup spoon or a coffee spoon as of yet might just have it be my first eating spoon. The pics don't do the color justice it's a lot darker of a red. Yeah I know I got a bunch of spoons going figure get some good rough outs till I get my hook knife in :D
