Intro to Sharpening
This session will begin with Bob making two tools: a bent angle tool for hollowing and a small round skew. Each tool will be sharpened and it's use will be demonstrated. Bob will then demonstrate sharpening other tools (spindle gouge, roughing gouge, small bowl gouge, etc.), primarily using the Wolverine jig. If time allows, Bob will sharpen a few tools that come "straight from the manufacturer" and we may be able to do a little "hands on" work with beginners.
