Hi all
You'll remember Hannah of the birdbox build?
Well, she has moved on now to sharpening Yep, sharpening plane irons and chisels using my eclipse jig on the diamond and waterstones. She does a great job once I've set it up and she actually enjoys it :shock:
Yes, enjoys sharpening :shock:
She loves to plane too (sisterhood eh Alf?) but finds it quite hard (she is only 11 and the smallest in her class) but the LN scaper plane is most definitelky her favourite and she uses it for ages
Her latest experiment was sawing on Sunday. I, ahem, bought a new dovetail saw on Saturday (as you do) and she wanted to try. So, after working her way through all of my hand saws, she found that she could cut exactly on the line using my japanese back saw :shock: :shock: I can't do that very well with this saw :?
Moral? get your kids in the workshop and let them 'help' it really is very rewarding :wink:
