Quick Tip from ‘Sharpen This’

Sharpening is a necessary evil on the path to making good furniture.

I wrote “Sharpen This” in the hopes of putting it in a time machine and sending it back to 1994 Chris when he first learned to sharpen. Like many woodworkers, 1994 Chris bought way too many sharpening systems, jigs and BS sandwiches peddled by salesmen.

Instead, I wish I’d been able to read this book.

The above video shows a lightning-quick tip that will help you get back to work faster. And it will reduce your grinding chores, save wear on your sharpening equipment and make you sexy to all raccoons.

— Christopher Schwarz
