Blades made of wood. Project for the manufacture of a culinary spatula. Step II - Making the end part

Making a wooden carved kitchen spatula "Primrose"

Since ancient times, man has been decorating his house, household items, kitchen utensils!
Distaffs, dishes, spoons were decorated not only with paintings, but also with carvings!
Carved wooden handmade kitchen spatula will help you prepare delicious healthy food and will serve as a decoration for your home!

To make a carved kitchen spatula, we take a linden board 70 mm wide, 20 mm thick, 300 mm long, cut the ends into a cone, bring one end of the workpiece (the handle of the spatula) to 30 mm, and leave the other wide.
We plan the flat part of the workpiece, cut off the wide part (blade) up to 6 mm. leaving the narrow part of the workpiece (handle) - 20 mm.
We got a lime blank (baklusha) for making a carved kitchen spatula!


We make markings: mark the center along the length of the blade and mark the border of the handle and blade.


With the help of any suitable circle, we denote a smooth transition from the blade to the handle and mark the handle of the blade.


For the manufacture of such a simple product, I do not consider it appropriate to use a power tool (jigsaw, drill). Armed with a sharp semicircular chisel of a suitable size, with a comfortable handle, let's start woodcarving!
First, we select, marked with a pencil, a smooth transition from the blade to the handle, then turn the workpiece over to the end, fix it, and cut off the excess with a flat chisel.
On the other side of the workpiece, we do the same.


If you want to hang a spatula, make a through hole with a semicircular chisel of a suitable size.


With a semicircular chisel, at an angle, from the center marked with a pencil, we begin to cut.


Carefully chamfer from the shoulder of the shoulder blade to the first notch.


With a corner, cutting the edge of the handle, we divide the drawing and make the handle curly.


We cut the edge with a straight chisel and an oblique knife, making the pattern more embossed.


From the center of the handle, cut the sheet with a corner, separating it from each other.


Round the end of the handle with a semicircular chisel.


Cut out four petals with a semicircular chisel. We separate them from each other by a corner.


With a semicircular chisel, we chamfer the tip of the handle. From the outside, we separate the petals with a corner.


We sharpen the end of the blade with a straight wide chisel and grind it.


We have a wonderful carved kitchen spatula. Beloved to the delight and guests to surprise.

Wood is a great material for a spatula in the kitchen and has many advantages. It remains only to choose the right shape and type of wood so that the blade serves for a long time.

The variety of kitchen utensils is simply amazing: every year there are new appliances made from modern and technologically advanced materials. Nevertheless, many housewives remain faithful to traditional household items - simple, familiar and safe. And the point here is not at all nostalgia or a craving for origins, but the fact that many of the utensils of our grandmothers and great-grandmothers turn out to be much more convenient and functional than their current counterparts. A simple example is a wooden spatula, which can be used to stir dressings and sauces, turn over pieces of meat or fish, pancakes and pancakes without burning your hands, and even easily lay out pieces of cakes or pastries at the festive table.

In addition to such a kind of multifunctionality, wooden utensils have other features for which home cooks love it so much.

Advantages and disadvantages

We practically do not think about the advantages of wood products for the kitchen - we just use them with pleasure. But after all, every housewife will be pleased to know that her tools are safe and will never spoil a signature dish. Here are a few reasons "for" the use of natural utensils:

  • When using a wooden spatula during cooking, there is no chance of getting burned, because wood has low heat conductivity, and unlike metal, it does not heat up.
  • Such utensils do not scratch dishes, because wood is in a sense a pliable and soft material. This makes it possible to use it for cooking in pots and pans with non-stick and Teflon coating.
  • Environmental friendliness - unlike plastic and other newfangled materials, the natural array does not emit toxins and does not affect the taste of dishes. True, for this you will need to purchase a spatula, which was definitely not treated with any impregnations in production.
  • Large selection of shapes, sizes and designs. You can buy carved or painted shoulder blades, decorated with scorched ornaments, with or without slots.
  • Low cost, not to mention the fact that such a little thing can be made with your own hands from a small plank - it will turn out almost for nothing.

Wood products are considered hypoallergenic and safe for human health.


However, products made from natural materials also have their drawbacks. For example, such blades absorb odors, stain with certain products, and can warp and even crack from prolonged exposure to water. Yes, they darken over time. Although these disadvantages are easy to eliminate. So that the spatula does not absorb moisture, after washing it must be wiped dry, to protect it from smoldering or fire, it must be stored away from open flames. And for a longer time, simple rules of care will help to preserve the attractive appearance of your favorite instrument.

Features of care

To protect a wooden spatula from cracks, before the first use, it must be lubricated with vaseline oil and left for 5-10 minutes in the oven at a temperature of +180 ° C. Be careful: this tip is not suitable for bamboo or lacquered items. In general, from time to time arrange your natural utensils with “oil rubdowns” - this will protect them from moisture and prevent cracking.

During operation, the cleanliness of wooden utensils should also be maintained. After preparing or serving food, immediately rinse the spatula under running water. If the food dries on its rough surface, it will be possible to remove it without damage only after a long soak, which is also not good for such a tool.

Also, modern household chemicals should not be used to wash wooden spatulas. Replace these products with laundry soap, soda or lemon. The latter will not only clean and disinfect the surface, but also give the wood a pleasant aroma.

Hydrogen peroxide will help lighten a wooden spatula that has darkened from time to time. You just need to apply it on a cotton pad and wipe the surface of the product, and after 2-5 minutes rinse it in warm water and dry it.


Let's choose!

First of all, you should ask what kind of wood the blade is made from. Not only its appearance will depend on this, but also the service life in your kitchen.

The leader here is juniper. It has a very dense structure and almost does not absorb moisture. In addition, juniper wood has antiseptic properties and a beautiful aroma. It is these blades that are the most durable. This is followed by bamboo - usually it comes with factory impregnation, so it does not require oiling and roasting in the oven. The last place is occupied by hardwoods (birch, beech, alder, walnut, etc.) - they are less durable.

Now it remains to choose only the shape and size of the spatula - depending on how you will use it. There are plenty of options here. On the market you can find rectangular, oval and cone-shaped tools, products with holes, as well as models in the form of a shallow spoon or fork with a long handle.

  • A narrow spatula is convenient to lay out pieces of cake or other desserts.
  • Wide - turn fish or meatballs in a pan, cook roast.
  • Products with holes are convenient for deep-frying - excess fat flows through the slots in the shoulder blade.
  • Wooden spoons are suitable for making sauces, jams, porridges and liquid dishes that need to be tasted during the cooking process.

Also on the Internet there are many master classes and videos that show how you can easily and quickly make a wooden spatula with your own hands. It will be a wonderful gift for mom or grandmother, wife or sister. If you are not yet confident in your abilities, buy a simple blank and decorate it to your taste: by burning,

    Household supplies

    When preparing a number of dishes, mixing blades are indispensable. They can be metal or wood. Often the most suitable is a wooden spatula. Some housewives prefer flat blades, others - two-horned, similar to a fork. The same spatulas and forks, only slightly smaller, can also be used for table setting. A blank for kitchen spatulas and forks can be obtained by splitting a log into chocks. In this case, the wood fibers remain intact, so that the products are durable. It should be borne in mind that it is advisable to cut the spatula or fork from raw wood, but the final processing should be carried out only after drying to an air-dry state.

    Option 1(Fig. 21.1).
    Material : medium-density hardwood harvesting (alder, birch, beech, maple) with dimensions of 300x50x12 mm.

    Tool: ruler, template, hacksaw, flat chisel 15 mm wide, knife, drill? 10... 12 mm, brace, round and flat files, sanding block.

    Progress of work: 1. Plane the plank in thickness in a wedge-shaped manner (Fig. 21.2).

    2. Draw the contours of the blade on thick paper and cut out a template from it.

    3. Mark the contours of the blade on the workpiece.

    4. Make several cross cuts near the concave contours (see Fig. 21.2).

    5. Cut the shoulder blade along the contour with a chisel and a knife (in some cases, you can use a small ax).

    6. Mark the centers, drill holes (oval holes are made on the basis of round ones).

    7. Clean the holes with a chisel and files.

    8. Chamfer, round the edges and sand the product.

    9. Soak a spatula with hot vegetable oil.

    Option 2(Fig. 21.3).

    Material: scrap sliced ​​veneer (beech or walnut) 250 mm long.

    Tool: cutter, bending tool, template, jigsaw, drills? 6 and 8 mm, drill, round and flat files, sanding block.

    Progress of work: 1. Cut out 6-10 rectangles from veneer (depending on the thickness of the veneer) 240x45 mm in size (it is desirable to keep the arrangement of the layers of the package).

    2. Spread glue on every second piece of veneer on both sides.

    3. Fold a package of veneer pieces smeared with glue, clamp it between the plates using clamps (in the case of making a straight blank) or in a homemade press (see Fig. 6.1). In the latter case, the workpiece is fixed on each side with two wedges. The clamping force must be of such magnitude as to cause the excess glue to be forced out at all points of the workpiece.

    4. After the glue has dried, remove the blank from the press and, using the template, apply the contours of the blade (fork) to it.

    5. Cut out the contours of the product with a hacksaw, jigsaw and drill.

    6. Process the edges of the product with a file and, if necessary, slightly sharpen the working part of the fork.

    7. Sand and impregnate the product with hot vegetable oil.

    Brief formulation of the problem.

    Design and manufacture a culinary spatula. The spatula should be light, comfortable, safe to use, durable and made of environmentally friendly and affordable materials.

    Relevance, identification of needs.

    We have been studying at the boarding school for four years. We went on a field trip to the culinary arts. We saw how many equipment and appliances are used for cooking. This includes factory equipment and fixtures made in our carpentry workshop. The 8th grade girls showed how convenient it is to use a cooking spatula when frying vegetables, but the problem is that the spatulas are short-lived. We decided to help them update their set of culinary spatulas.

    Research and analysis.

    Design - analysis of existing products on the topic of the project. We examined the shoulder blades available at the school. The design of the products did not meet our requirements in terms of height and shape. The cost of a spatula in the store is 116 rubles. We always wanted to make some kind of product with our own hands, but so that it would not just lie in a box, forgotten by everyone, but would constantly benefit. It would be nice if the product will be used by other students of our school. Of course, it is difficult for us to make a chair or wardrobe. But we are quite capable of making a culinary spatula. This product will help save school money on the purchase of equipment for the culinary classroom.

    A culinary spatula for cooking, according to consumers, should be:

    1. comfortable and light;

    2. safe;

    3. durable;

    4. from environmentally friendly and affordable materials;

    5. inexpensive.

    GOST requirements for the manufacture of culinary blades .

    Culinary blades are made of soft and hard wood.

    1.1. Lumber is divided into edged, one-sided edged and unedged, boards and bars. Terms and definitions - according to .

    Safety precautions:

    1. Carpentry workbench

      do not over-tighten the front and rear clamps of the workbench;

      you can only move the wedges in nests up and down with a mallet;

      the cover of the workbench must be protected from damage by a cutting tool;

      at the end of the work, it is necessary to remove the chips from the workbench with a brush - sweep;

    2. Part marking:

      it is necessary to mark the details with a simple and sharply sharpened pencil, it is necessary to hold the marking tool correctly.

    3. Sawing with a carpentry saw:

      before sawing, the workpiece should be correctly installed, securely fastened to the machine;

      saw only with a serviceable, sharply sharpened saw; put the saw on the workbench with the teeth away from you;

      you can not guide the saw blade with your finger, use wooden bars for this purpose, special stops.

    4. Planing:

      securely fix the workpiece on the workbench;

      during operation, it is necessary to clean the planing tools from chips with a wooden wedge;

      work with a planer with a sharply sharpened knife;

      it is impossible to check the quality of the treated surface and the sharpness of the blade with your hands;

      on a workbench, planer tools should be placed on their side with the blade away from you.

    5. Product surface finish:

      it is necessary to clean the product with a file with a serviceable and well-fitted handle and sandpaper;

      when working, you can not grab the toe of the file with the fingers of your left hand;

      Remove sawdust and sanding dust from the surface with a brush.

    Appearance and moral values

    Birch wood is dense. It is perfectly processed by any tool, both manual and mechanized.

    There are carpentry wood processing manually, partially mechanized, and also fully mechanized, carried out in factories with serial or mass production.

    Tools for manual and mechanized processing differ in different shapes and different nature of its movement.

    Due to the fact that birch is very finely porous and dense, it lends itself well to grinding operations. The resulting surfaces are very smooth and have a silky soft sheen.

    The proposed model of a spatula for cooking is interesting in that it is easy to manufacture and convenient to use. Wood is very easy to work with. It's nice that we can make a necessary and useful thing with our own hands, owning a tool for manual woodworking. All details of the product are well polished, this makes the surface smooth, on which the wood grain is clearly visible, which ensures the natural and unique beauty of the product.

    initial ideas.

    In order to select possible product options for manufacturing, we looked at various magazines, books, Internet sites about different types of blades, as well as products in stores. We settled on three simple options for the blades, which we selected as a result of the search and evaluated each option (in points) for compliance with the six criteria put forward: corresponds - 1 point, does not correspond - 0 points.

    Technological process of blade manufacturing

    To get a durable spatula for cooking, you need the direction of the fibers to match the length of the product. If you do not follow this rule, the product will quickly break down. Wood is more resistant to compression and tension along the grain.

    Joinery products, despite their external differences, are made according to one generally accepted plan.

      Preparation for work, selection of material.

    Masterok is a class 4 company that produces the world's best culinary spatulas for cooking.

    A spatula is an indispensable tool in the kitchen. It is used in the heat treatment of vegetables, fruits, berries.

    Use only once kitchen spatulas for frying vegetables and you will constantly use them in your work. Shovels can be rented from the school workshop.

    Any products of the "Masterok" company are a combination of beauty and convenience.

    Project evaluation:

    And so, the culinary spatula for cooking is ready. We believe that in general it meets the selected criteria. The product is economical, since it is possible to use the remnants of the material for its manufacture. Manufacturing technology includes the operations that we learned in carpentry lessons: planing, sawing, cleaning, grinding. Since these operations are simple, it took not much time to make the blade - 3 lessons.

    The quality of the product was appreciated by 8th grade students at culinary lessons.

    Culinary blades turned out to be comfortable, light, durable. All the kids liked them.
