Anyone going to click on that one?
I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

Nicely shows the difference between asian and western woodworking, among other philosophies..
Pulling the work towards you instead of pushing away.

I always pull, draw filing, scraping or planing. Better control.
But that's nuts.

There was a thread a few weeks back about the best way to sharpen a blade, perhaps these folks should be consulted. It is like a five way partnership: steel maker, bladesmith, sharpener, plane maker and woodworker.

Exactly.. Don't forget sawing. Jap saws are awesome.

It's not hard once you get the hang of it, to sharpen a high carbon jap chisel or planer blade to unbelievable sharpness.

I'm more of an axe/sledgehammer guy myself.
Keep your gun-hand ready and your eyes peeled.

It's not hard once you get the hang of it, to sharpen a high carbon jap chisel or planer blade to unbelievable sharpness. Murray Carter in Oregon gives classes on blade making and sharpening. He was in rural Japan for 17 years apprenticing with a master, who named Murray as his worthy successor to a multi-generational family tradition. He also takes people on tours to Japan to see where the most valuable sharpening stones are found, swordsmiths, etc. Look him up and tell him I referred you.
