which hand tool are you most skillfull with?

When I was cheffing I used to get my stones from hardware stores. I did have a nice one that was Silcone Carbide on one side and Aluminium Oxide on the other which was really nice. Later I got a diamond Eze Lap stone which I still have and use but Chefs shops are always expensive. That is because the only people that go there are apprentices who don't know better. They drop out of the trade like flies, ever seen an old chef? Then new bunnies come along and buy more gear.

StudleyThere are exceptions to all rules. Just bought a 1000/6000 Nip waterstone from Everten Online for $39 as opposed to $75+ from all the WW emporia or $120 for 800/2000 at local chefs supplies in Hornsby

Next day delivery too.

Most people who know me think I'm a bit of a w@nker ;), so you can guess my specialisation :D.

Best hand-tooling experience is a sharp drawknife through a quality english willow cleft! A Drawknife for me thanks!

They are nice to use!! :) :)

My favourite tool has to be a stuffituperer. I have no idea what it looks like but I seem to use it on every project that I do, because on every job there is usually one stuffup. :D

yeh, I've got one of those. But, its not my favorite :confused: Its called a 'hammer'. And it doesn't seem to like nail heads.

I like a good sharp chisel, but...........in modern times one would be lost with out a Belt Sander, I know it runs on jibbers but its still my favourite!

I used to think my favourite was clamps - then I broke most of them. https://www.ubeaut.biz/ahgee.gifWho'd have thought a bean-counter would be a gorilla?https://www.ubeaut.biz/scowl.gif
