something to sharpen my chisels :lol: contemplated buying this all summer, each week his price would change so i finally got him down to a quid and bought it. gave it abit of a clean up and looked inside and the gear work is amazing instead of just being a plane old gear there is elegant spokes, lovely what stone should i replace it with just for general knife sharpening?

Hi, adidat


Graining combs for doing fake wood grain effects.

Adiat,

do you use the miller dowels. I found them to be good, but they dont seem to have a wide following.

Ahem. "Slide rule".

The octagon pattern handles are my favourites...along with the straight octagons on older chisels. That handle will find a new steel friend one day when you can marry them up.

I did just that with the Matheison gouge I found with no handle...it's far happier now!

I simply lurve those burrs Chris...what have you planned for them? I can't gauge how big they are...so can't suggest a use yet...
