⚙️ SHOW NOTES — EPISODE #99: Whenever Tom is asked “What’s your favorite hand tool?” he usually says the spokeshave. It’s such a pleasure to use, a “free form” tool that allows you to easily sculpt and shape the wood however you feel inspired! But the spokeshave can be a frustrating tool if it’s dull or set up improperly. So, in this episode Tom shows you his timeworn methods for sharpening and getting the most from your spokeshave. Soon you'll be sculpting to make Michelangelo jealous! (Closed captioned)
