Also if your broke like me, I made that gouge (bottom image, top center) from a brick layers jointing tool. They are like 6 bucks at lowes, can make two sizes. Better to decide which size you want and cut the other end down to be handled. I'll do that when I can get a hot enough fire going or borrow a torch for a few minutes to straighten it out. Works pretty good for a sub $10 gouge. Of course I've never had a real gouge in hand, so nothing to compare to.Any way, plan to get at least one bowl from that log, some more spoons/ladles/whatever.
