Since I've been getting into more and more "unplugged" tools in my shop (thanks a lot Zahid... ) I'm finding out just how much I'm lacking in the proper skills to work with chisels and handplanes in a well controlled manner. I've been holding off on asking questions because I don't wanna ask dumb questions since I've really been working with wood for over 30 years now and all of it has been with power tools. I'm liking the vairous aspects or working with handtools and handplanes, but I need to learn how to better use each one with more skill and control.
I guess I just need to learn to suck it up and ask all the dumb questions I can so I can learn more about working with handtools hugh.
