Description

Learn the basics of sharpening and honing your hand woodworking tools from our staff instructor in this clinic. We will demystify, and help you start to master the essential practice of, tool sharpening. We will cover all of the steps of the sharpening process, including the many different sharpening approaches and tools available, such as stones, sandpaper and glass, diamond sharpeners, low-speed grinders and more; preparing your blade by flattening; honing and regular tool maintenance; and where to source good quality sharpening tools.

All you need to bring is your own chisels, block planes, and other hand tools to get hands-on practice sharpening and honing.
