    After having watched plenty of sharpening videos online, I have to say, this is the most comprehensive yet, straightforward explanation and demonstration I’ve seen. Thank you for going to the trouble of making it available to us. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

      I just checked the video, the audio is working. What is it that seems wrong? I might be able to clean it up.

    I'm 68 years old and now have to change my hobby. I've done woodworking since the early 80's but never thought for a minute that sawdust would be dangerous to my health. Now I've been diagnosed with pulunary fibrosis I can't affod to be around sawdust. So now I'm changing my hobby to woord carving where there will be wood chips, not sawdust.
    I want to thank you for shairng your knowledge about gouges, chisels and "v" tools sharpening. This is the area where I'm having some trouble. I was a machinest earlier in my life so I understand sharpening edges and so forth, but I tend to round the tips of my chisels, gouges and "V" tool.
    After watching this video I hope I'll do better. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge.

      Hi Gene, Thanks for the feedback, very much appreciated. Moving on to carving should be a good transition to help with your health issues. I too can not do much woodworking anymore due to respiratory issues.

    • @genegoodwin8925

      @@MakingStuffwithChrisDeHut It is so sad that we woodworkers were not told of the dangers of sawdust. With all of your knowledge you can help many with their sharpening of chisels, gouges, and "V" tools. I hope you also warn then of the dangers of sawdust so what has happen to you and me will not happen to your followers.
      Wood carving should be a lot safer than the scroll saw that I enjoyed so much. The scroll saw could do so many things, but the sawdust is a very fine dust and I think hurt me more than any other woodworking tool I've owned. Thanks once again for sharing your knowledge with others, I'm sure it aill help many.

    David, I'm working with smaller V and U gouges on a woodcut printmaking project. I'm so glad I found your video. I was confused about the correct way to sharpen my tools on a stone. Your wooden samples that illustrate bevels, burrs and how to avoid rocking the edge during sharpening are excellent visual aids. Thank you for making this so clear.

      Hi Kathy, I have lost touch with David since this was filmed (about 20 years ago). If I see him again, I will certainly pass along your comments. In any case, I am glad you found the video informative and helpful.

    Excellent video, I really needed a few small pointers and this truly helped.
    I fortunately came across a set of carving tools being sold by an older gentelman, that were made in the 1800's, in Britain, I believe.
    I have never sharpened them as well as they could be, and were not done perfectly by the previous owner.
    The steel is handforged and stamped. It is a true joy to work with.
    Thank You !!

    One of the best tutorials one can find. As I am an apprentice to become a boatbuilder in Germany, I really liked the analogy or the comparison of the v-tool tip to the bow/stem and keel shape of a boat, when watching. Those kind of anecdotes are priceless and pure joy🤩 Somehow, I'm now curious on whether he is a sailor or not!? Thank you very much for the video!!!🤗

      I am not and never have been biased towards modern or traditional tools or techniques. Any tool or technique that helps a person achieve the final outcome is a good tool or technique.

    Hello and thank you for one of the best illustrations I have seen yet. I recently got hold of a box 12 carving tools at a very reasonable price, so I bought them. I am not an experienced carver, so had not see chisels like these before. They are essentially very thick irons, (probably 2 to 3 times thicker than what you are working with in this show) with a sharp 35+ degree bevel. They do not engage the work piece unless held at a sharp, almost vertical angle. I have been contemplating filing the back of the chisels until I get to a smoother transition between the back of the chisel and the bevel. Would you think that will work? Thanks in advance / Amir

    • @MakingStuffwithChrisDeHut
      @MakingStuffwithChrisDeHut  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Amir, based on what you describe, I suspect those might be chisels for a purpose other than relief carving.

    I always round over the bevel of my chisels. I do that on purpose because it makes it easier to come out of the wood again. The rounder the better. I never had trouble finding the cutting edge.
    When you want avoid to round the edge over when stropping, don´t strop on leather. Take a piece of hardwood endgrain and apply the stropping compound to that.
