    Love the home made tools from files that you made . I bet you must have allot of old medal files on hand liying around
    Thumbs up for allot of sanding and a job well done ;-)

    • @ScrapwoodCity

      Thank you very much. Actually they came from my grandfather, he used to collect those files with every chance he got, so now I keep finding files everywhere and I have good reasons to collect them as well! Lol

      @ScrapwoodCity  8 лет назад +2

      Thank you, the leather is for stropping, it gives the metal a polish and it makes it razor sharp!

    Way good job,,, I saw you putting something on the leather? If you were to go to a truck stop, you may find ( green ) polishing compound. Green is for hard stainless and crome. A 10 usd stick would last a life time for knife sharpening. It is about 3 lbs in weight.
    Keep up the good work. ...

    • @ScrapwoodCity

      thanks, I'll check out the compound you suggest

    Nice now I've got to buy a tourch.
    I've got a few old files I'll ahve to look real close at how well they cut, I;m thinking they are worn out and dull, this would be a good use for them.
    I;m sure the older person that sold them to me won't mind they have found a new use doing woodworking. I think he'd like it.

    Very nice work Dimitris. I like how well did you explain all the process. By the way which oil are you using to quench the metal? Thanks for share.

    • @ScrapwoodCity

    • @ScrapwoodCity
      @ScrapwoodCity  8 лет назад

      I saw this tool used by a Greek luthier. He was actually shaping a bouzouki neck. It's been years since then and I never got the chance to buy such a tool. Never imagined I would make one. I actually want it to clean the bark from logs or shape large cylindrical things

  • @sgsax
    @sgsax 8 лет назад +1

    Nice to see a different kind of knife build. How do you like the angle of the handles? Seems like most draw knives I've seen have much steeper angle to the handles than you've done here. You can probably get more force in your pull with what you've got, though.

    • @ScrapwoodCity
      @ScrapwoodCity  8 лет назад

      I did not have enough steel to make that 90 degree angles on the handles. But it seems pretty comfortable and I believe that you can use more force indeed!

    why are you heat treating it? Is the file not already heat treated?

    • @All4Grogg
      @All4Grogg 4 года назад

      Files are heat treated to be extremely hard, he is heat treating it to be softer. If he didn't do that it would be near impossible to sharpen and maintain in addition to being overly brittle.

  • @CrisAnderson27
    @CrisAnderson27 Год назад +1

    You do know that it being a file...you don't have to reharden it? Also, if you leave the edge at file hardness, you can use it to curl steel the same way you used it to curl out that wood. The Japanese had a similar tool called 'Sen' that did exactly that.

    • @ScrapwoodCity

      Yes gardening wasn't necessary. But at the time I nade the video I didn't know that. After making a few tools I have a better idea now.
