I'll be there as a vendor. After such a hiatus from events of this kind I'm looking forward to seeing woodworking people again.

They do not. Purely decorative.

Just completed these 3 awls in preparation for the Handworks event in Sept. One in Desert Ironwood, 2 in infused Masur birch. These have a removable blade feature to facilitate sharpening.

Fortunately my shop is climate controlled. Putting in a lot of hours in preparation for the Handworks event in Sept. Three different sets of Cabinet makers turn screws. These feature hollows into...
Very nice!!!
Just completed this pair of 3/8 wide 18 degree skew chisels. African Blackwood handles, blued high carbon steel blades and stainless steel ferrules.

The theory behind sharpening any blade doesn't change with where the tool is made. The same actions that create a sharp edge will do so no matter where the tools is made. I think when people are...
Thanks Mike!!
That's a fine looking chair John

Frederick these were a commission so they are spoken for. I don't maintain stock.

The side bevels on these is 30 degrees with a generous land. You tend to put your hand on the blade of paring chisels and this makes it easier on your hands, and if you're cleaning out a slot or dado...
These are last couple of chisels for the year. A pair of paring chisels with desert ironwood handles. 3/4 and 1", overall length is 10.5". Thickness on these is a nominal 1/8 so they can be flexed...

I've turned quite a few of these. I've built some pretty good muscle memory. The hardest part of designing a chisel handle is figuring out how to finish off the end.
Ron
Not that I'm aware,

You're right, even though they are used mostly for paring I wouldn't hesitate to use them on a hinge mortise.

These are some butt chisels modified to make them more conducive to Kumiko work. All the edges are broken generously so as to be kind to your hands and the handles are sized so you can push with the...
Nicely done. All the details are there
Ron
Derek you ask good questions.
The side bevels are 20 degrees, enough to clear the corner of the steepest typical DT angles. The primary bevel at the cutting edge is 25 degrees with a secondary...
Frederick these have already found a new home.

These won't be to everyone's taste. Some will like them and some will think making chisels with acrylic polymer handles is blasphemy. There's a big ole world out there with a lot to like and I guess...
Many sellers have pretty much abandoned USPS for shipping anything of real value. Just not a reliable method and filing a claim for lost merchandise is nearly impossible.
