Hi folks, I would appreciate some help on choosing my first set of rasps.
I’m planning on making at least 6 saw handles (open and closed) over the next year, and I’m not sure what rasps to choose. I can usually read numerous threads and find out what I need, not with rasps, I'm going round in circles.
I know the differences between machine and hand stitched rasps, and I’m planning to go with Liogier Rasps for the finer work.
I'm not sure what I'll use the rasps for once I’ve made the handles; I generally prefer a modern style of furniture with straight lines, and for fine tuning tenons I use a router plane.I’ve got a bandsaw to do the initial shaping, so should I choose 1 or 2 handlemakers rasps in the set or choose more versatile options.
What would be a sensible set to get, including grain, file length and type?Cheers, Iain
