Product Description
Accessible and jargon-free for even inexperienced woodworkers, and illustrated with 200 color photographs and diagrams, this first in the Success with Woodworking series tackles a fundamental, yet vital for success, woodworking process: tool sharpening. From the reasons why blunt tools ensure poor-quality work to advice on how to achieve the perfect cutting edge, this introductory guide makes the theory and mechanics of sharpening easy to understand. It covers sharpening by hand, from oilstones and honing to slips and strops; machine sharpening, including controlling heat buildup and grinding wheels; and how to sharpen specific tools: turning and carving tools, marking devices, scrapers, planer blades, green woodworking tools, and household items. With these hands-on exercises and practical advice, top-quality work is guaranteed.
Reader Reviews
Of course, I haven't read this yet as it will not be available until March but I know Mr. Laughton (sort of, we both post on the same woodworking forum) and he is one talented individual. His posts and advice on the forum are always spot on and he writes in a way that is very understandable. Should be a great read. Saddletramp
