I love it. Sure will be happy when I can crank out a "cheap date" like that in a day. I make a bow and it seems like I'm married to it for months  ::)

Gordie I use a Shinto straight 11" saw rasp, a Nicholson 49, Nicholson 4 in 1, Nicholson ferriers rasp and a few home made scrapers that make all the difference. I also buy the most expensive sandpaper I can find. It makes a huge difference.
