    Paul just casually gets perfect shavings with plane, scraper plane, and card scraper. I am happy when I don’t get dust from my scrapers.

    My grandson learned 'woodworking' at school. I gave him my favourite tool of all time - a card scraper. After showing him how to fettle one, as my cabinet-making father had taught me. At school, his 'tutor' had no idea what it was.

      just from the sound you can tell how beautifully sharp his scraper is; if only i could get mine that sharp! it's certainly harder to sharpen than a plane blade!

      I was going to say, it's not really sharpening, but more of putting a tiny bur on both edges of the scraper

    • @jackwaycombe
      @jackwaycombe 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Best thing I ever bought - 40 years ago - was a quality burnisher. Just don't rely on handy bits of hard steel - turn down your scraper edges with a decent tool.

    @PrototypePlatform 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    the issue with the card, is that you can flex and cave it, giving you uneven dips in what would otherwise be a nigh-perfectly flat surface. the tear out can also be handled nicely by planing much much slower, it comes from speed, remove the speed, the wood fibres can be cut without being pinched or pulled by the surrounding fibres, which is what often (primarily) causes tear out in a knot.

    Forgive my millennial frame of analogy but if woodworking was something like a video game, watching Paul Sellers work so effortlessly reminds me of a character you have maxed out to level 100. He's acquired and mastered all of the special abilities and tools.

    Yeah, but its really really bothersome to scrape at worse cases 3-4mm of material away just got it dimensioned properly. Maybe scrap the peace and get another peace to replace it, but in some projects you cant since its about the grain pattern needing to be similar enough.
