Tool Sharpening and Maintenance

Sharp tools are the essence of good woodworking.  On this one-day course I will show you how to get your tools into tip top condition.  All the main green woodworking tools will be covered - draw knife and spoke-shave, whittling and hook knives, travisher, chisels and planes.  Learn the theory and practice of tool sharpening.  Bring your own tools.  I will provide sharpening stones but please bring your own sharpening equipment for assessment and possible use.  I can also advise you on a sharpening kit to bring with you, and jigs we can make to ease and speed the process.  You will learn how to hone your own tools to a razor edge, and will take home a simple sharpening kit to keep your tools forever sharp.  Please state when booking which tools you are particularly keen to learn how to sharpen.  Click here for more information, or to to book.
