Description: Join us for an interactive demonstration on sharpening woodworking tools. Robert will give an overview of their approach to sharpening chisels, plane irons, and knives for hand tool woodworking applications. You can bring a chisel, plane iron, or pocket or kitchen knife of your own to practice with or help us tune up some of OSM’s tools.
Be sure to wear closed-toed shoes, be prepared to tie back your hair if necessary, and avoid wearing things that dangle (jewelry, shirts with long, loose sleeves, etc.).
Minors must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
