Q&A:

Yonatan24​: Do you prefer a buffing wheel or leather with buffing compound for sharpening chisels.planes - and why? Do any round over the cutting egde more?


Carbonite Gamorrean; Discuss blade/iron Radius
Block, Scrub, Fore, Jack, Smoother, Jointer, etc any I forgot...
(Don't know what a "bench" plane is)
Aaannnd; what about chisels (NON carving) Like bench, butt, mortise, DT, paring, timber slick, etc., etc.


Wood.Work.LIFE.: ​How sharp is sharp enough? How do you test? Paper test? Shave? No visible edge?
