which hand tool are you most skillfull with?

Gidday:D:D:D

For me just has to be a Cardscraper.......................Although I love a well made n set up Handplane A well tuned Hand Scraper with a good turned Bur is a Joy to use.....................Its simplicity belies its grace and effectiveness!!!

REgards Lou:)

I've Scot blood. I make a great chiseller! :D

I'd prefer to answer spokeshave as that is the handtool I'm best with but some danged fool lumped 'em in with handplanes, which is my worst...

Pretty narrow list Ryan. I'd have to answer - none of the above.

Not bad with a cricket bat or kitchen knife tho.

As a piece of totally irrelevant trivia, I'm hunting for the best value Nip waterstones currently. Never to let a chance go by, I stopped in at a Chefs supplies place, thinking they use waterstones for their knives (I have a set of v expensive Nip knives at home).

We should all rest easy in our beds tonight. A 1200 waterstone was around double what we pay at the usual suspects. Positively Festool, I thought.

Forgive me, I do get distracted..............

1# Chisels
2# Switch on the power tools which was not on the list

"Which hand, Tool, are you most skillful with?"


My right. And I object to being called a tool. :mad:

Hi Doug!

Do I detect a certain 'leaning' here? Made up your mind on the W/R Q: then?

Cheers!

still looking steve, lots of things to consider. if i hadnt recently bought the triton router the 'rat would be looking better. a lot of the dovetail jigs have a lot to recommend them too. mind you i might just consider mounting the old makita in a 'rat and selling the triton router and table along with the finger jointer. but im still researchinghttp://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com...cons/icon7.gif
