Making a spoon?

Sorry you have not gotten any replies so far. Most of the Moderators are busy moving content to the new board.
A spoon can be a complicated shape therefore a complicated explanation as well. My suggestion is that you look over the video tutorials and get familiar with the way SU works.
Here are the tut's provided by GSU:
http://sketchup.google.com/vtutorials.htmlLook over the SU5 tut's first. #18 covers some of the sandbox tools which might help with your spoon.
Get a start and post your progress, then others will have something tangible to help you with.
Cheers.

Hi Poke,
Your post got me thinking about how it might be done so I tried to make a spoon.
It didn't come out very good. I design and plan furniture so that this sort of thing is way outside my comfort zone. I used the soap skin ruby and the follow me tool and the intersect tool and a bunch of others. All in all this took me about 20 minutes.
I'm sure someone out there will come up with a simple and ellegent solution to modeling spoons and the like. -
Hi Poke, hi folks.

Spooning with SU...who would've guessed.

Hello,
Sorry to bother you with this question again but I find no active tuto on this forum to model the hollow part of a table spoon (with tool sandbox for example?).
Thank you for your help!

Draw a sphere and use the scale tool to elongate it on one side(horizontal), then intersect the sphere with a plane placed on the horizontal direction. Place the plane as high as you would like the spoon to be, then intersect both and delete the unwanted geometry.
