All the tools in the world won't help if they ain't sharp....Learn how
to sharpen.......i suggest going to a class. i have seen them offered at
woodworking stores....until i finally felt i knew how to sharpen a plane
blade and a chisel i never felt "whole"...Dull tools are a drag....they
just make you want to go do something else right then......waiting for
that magic moment to come by just reading and practicing..well...don't
wait ...just sign up for a class on sharpening and get it over
with...then practice practice... i didn't because of whatever ....and in
retrospect know it would have advanced my skills much quicker and
without as much frustration....golly gee this ain't golf...woodworking
is suppose to relax me!!!DON ( who's next project is the Room Of Rust)
