About this event
This demo and slideshow will cover sharpening equipment and techniques, including honing, with guidance on producing an effective edge on your tools and how to diagnose and correct problems in your sharpening. Different angles and helpful set-up tools are discussed for all tools including gouges, negative rake scrapers, parting tools and skews. Questions are welcome during and after the formal demo.
