      Factory blade needs to be cut in, grind and hone of the chamfer, hone the flat, deburr. Cutting in a new blade is about 15 minutes for me to properly set it up, then 2-3 minutes to reintroduce a freshly honed edge when needed.

    • @johanneswerner1140
      @johanneswerner1140 Год назад

      Probably even less. For chisels and plane irons flattening the back is what usually takes longest. Using the "ruler trick" speeds this up - a lot. I'd say apart from having an extra grit there's no real difference. Sharpening the iron (during working with the tool), Looking at Paul Sellers, Frank Klaus or Richard Maguire, you can get it sharp in a minute or so. But those have much more experience than hobbyists like me. For me, I'm not under time pressure and get it done in three minutes or so.

    I've spent a while backpacking around, working for room and board on small family farms and homesteads. In 2015 on a trip to Belize (formerly the colony of British Honduras until 1981), I found a Record A151 Spokeshave for sale in a hardware store in Belize City. They stopped making them in Sheffield, England in 2004, and I don't doubt this tool had been on the shelf for at least 10 years. The package was dusty and yellow with age. It was priced at $54.56 Belize dollars, or $27.28 USD, but there was another sticker on the back for $48.50, clearly it had been gathering dust long enough for the price to rise with inflation. It was alongside a cheaper, inferior quality brand, and had surely been passed over many times for the cheaper option. I bought it without hesitation and used it to make many handles for hammers, mattocks, shovels, hoes, and even a canoe paddle. It's so light and versatile, I'd pack it for my next trip.

    "THANK YOU!", Mr. Nubs!
    I just bought a "Taytools 469560 Flat Bottom Spokeshave", delivered May 03.
    I paid $20.69US for a USED Taytools spokeshave on amazon, "fulfilled by amazon".
    I'm not unhappy w/ the tool but I do *not* recommend buying "used" at amazon.
    Buy new from amazon or from Taytools.
    I think the hole in the chipbreaker/blade retainer is too big (3/32) but other that it's fine.
    I wish you had posted this video 10 days ago!
    It wouldn't have made much difference, I've already learned how to sharpen most anything.
    I'll resharpen & try the scale under the back next time.
    I used a 400 & then a 600 grit diamond plate to clean up the machine marks.
    Followed up w/ a 1,000 & then 1,200 grit diamond plates.
    I've already used it a hickory handle, poor quality wood, 'wild' grain jumps about.
    But that is not the tool's fault, I wanted a cheap handle to practice on, & I sure got one.
    It's a "Truper", it was only $20US & I've made 3 handles out of it.
    I still need a 'good' one tho.
    Thanks again.
    Have a GREAT day, Neighbor!

    Great video, James! You're one of the best teachers on here.
    I don't sharpen exactly like that, but that doesn't matter. The most important part is that it's easy and effective. The more accessible the method, the better. We can always choose/develop our own favourite method as we learn-and, boy, do I have a lot to learn :^)
    My first spokeshave was given to me because a vintage tool seller (the tools, not the seller, were vintage) accidentally sold me a small hand drill with no jaws. It was an old flat sole Stanley of the type without the adjustment screws. It wasn't pretty, but it worked a treat! I bought the other one soon after! I love using them. I've gotten one with the adjustment screws since then. A brilliant tool!

    That’s one of the things that sucks about a new tool is getting out all those factory scratches and getting the angle set up the first time. I’ve been trying to get a plane refurbished for the last couple days and I finally got all the damage out of the blade. I just ran out of sandpaper on my high grits.

    2:06 "...a granite floor tile..." Pay attention, folks. Granite _is_ your best bet (in tiles for this purpose). I've checked lots of tiles and granite is more likely to be flat than any ceramic tile and most marble or slate tiles. Thanks for another great 'how to', Stump.

    I do not do flatwork, I make English style self longbows for target shooting, mostly out of Pacific Yew. My three major shaping tools are draw knives, spokeshaves and cabinet scrapers. It would be just about impossible to make the bows without the use of at least a spokeshave and cabinet scraper.

    Does the sole of the spoke shave also need to be flattened - like a block plane?

    • @StumpyNubs
      @StumpyNubs  Год назад +4

      Not really. I would want it even from side to side, but the sole is so short from the toe to the heel, and some are intentionally curved. The work is really done along the mouth.

    Thank you for this excellent video! I really struggle with the microbevel. I can easily find the primary bevel and sharpen that. It’s big enough to create the reference surface that you can “feel”. What I mess up on is a consistent microbevel. I can’t seem to keep the same bevel on each stroke. Your suggestion to get a few of these cheaper spokeshave might be just the ticket for practice. Thanks to the wood gods we have Taylor Toolworks!! $20 for a spokeshave like that is a true bargain! I do love that style of spokeshave. :)

    There aren't many skills that a man really needs to have to be successful. Sharpening is one that really is required. Be it spoke shaves, planes, pocket knives, kitchen knives, lawn mower blades, etc., they all perform so much better when sharp. Because a sharp blade requires much less effort, it is actually safer to use.
    I do suggest going to the hardware store and getting yourself some cut resistant gloves to use when sharpening. You are handling items that are very sharp and you do need to protect yourself.

  • @monut211
    @monut211 Год назад

    I find that sharpening the way you described is a lot harder for beginners. Is harder to keep the bevel on the stone if you go perpendicular to the stone since the bevel is shorter, if you use a 45° approach you will have a easier time, going parallel to the stone is even easier since you have a bevel length equal to the blade width. And personally I think that you dont have the same control pulling the blade to you since you may round the bevel. Is best to learn to push the blade away from you while keeping the pressure constant.

    Hey James, I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, as well as a couple other chronic pain issues. My disability was what actually drew me to this hobby initially and it has provided a lot of therapy both mental and physical, although some tasks I do require sone modifications to perform. This would definitely be one of them. Holding a small object at a specific angle for a prolonged period of time is not something my small joints allow. Do you have any ideas for any sort of jig or tool or handle one could build in order to make this accessible for someone with my particular needs? Obviously, i could easily hire out any sharpening I need done, but when a person finds they CAN'T do something, it drives them all the more to find ways in which they CAN.

    • @StumpyNubs
      @StumpyNubs  Год назад

      I don't know of a spokeshave solution. I would suggest a small block plane for chamfering/shaping straight objects and convex curves, and a sanding block (I like cork or foam) for convex surfaces.

      Not everything is as cynical as that. I make the videos I want to make, and I try to match my sponsors to the videos.

I can guarantee you I would have made this video even if the spokeshave was not from a sponsor.
