MTO Pumpkin Challenge!
on: October 30, 2017, 11:01:12 PM
I haven't carved ours yet, but I was wondering who has carved theirs, and what did you use?  Come on folks, let's see some action shots!   :pok:

When I was a wee boy, we didn’t have pumpkins, but we had turnips. One year, feeling I was missing out, I hollowed out a turnip with a spoon…. a… spoon! Anyway, I carved a face in it, stuck in a candle and put the top back on. The candle dehydrated and eventually started to burn the top… the resulting stench which filled the house at dinner time was not unlike a ripe dog fart.

Sorry, but me and my little girl used pumpkin carving tools from a kit :facepalm: I did use a Victorinox kitchen knife to cut the hole in the top though :whistle:

No pics?

We don’t do halloweens or trick or treats over here. But would be interesting to see how pumpkin carving is done... :cheers:

My family just finished.  I fashioned mine to scare Milennials;)  I used the Victorinox Executive, an ice cream scoop and pasta claw.

I don't carve pumpkins anymore. I have a realistic looking plastic Jack O Lantern that uses a night light bulb instead of a candle. It's cleaner and safer.

but, but I actually eat the pumpkin afterwards!   ???

it's still 11 AM here but this evening I'll post pics after carving the poor thing, trying to decide what to use to put the holes and torture the orange guy (first world problems  :facepalm:)

Your name isn't Baldrick is it?

You also think using a turnip instead of a pumpkin was a cunning plan, m'lord?

I carved mine with a pumpkin carving knife (looks a bit like a SAK fish scaler), and put colour changing LED T-Lights in them.  I did the hollowing out with a CRKT eat'n'tool, and used a good old sharpie to draw my lines on to follow for cutting the faces.
