Sharpening for Carving and Hand Tools

This one-day course is an opportunity for woodworkers of all skill levels to get to grips with the finer points of sharpening hand tools.

Sharpening is something of an art form with its own sets of knowledge and skills, and can be an enjoyable process, rather than just a tiresome necessity.

The sharpening day will focus on chisels and gouges, but will also cover knives and scrapers; most of the things needed for hand work. The principles, however, apply to most other hand tools, and anyone involved in using edge tools will benefit from this dayParticipants will learn how to set up their sharpening operation at home with with minimum expense using readily available equipment and materials.
