I really, really need to clear out some of my horde of wood. Now that the spindle blanks are dry, I decided to make a bunch of scoops, but have a dilemma: when I cut the side off to convert the 'goblet' into a scoop, should I cut the flat grain side or the edge grain side? Suggestions?
For example, here are three scoops (shown in an Etsy photo, not made by me) with the one on the left cut on the edge grain (A) and the one on the right cut on the flat grain (B). (The one in the middle was apparently cut during a hangover)
