Hi Alex,
I love the knew format for your lessons. This project is coming together nicely. It’s on my list a little further down the track.

I love it also!
Hello Alex,
You mentioned the second layer being to flat as a pancake…and I see you struggling with the depth of the wood.
What is the “hurry” to glue the second piece on there so early?
I would think the we can put a dowel in, without any glue, there just ” to play” with it and you can take it off at any time, till its just perfect?
Keep up the good work!
Hans, We did glue it a little early due to class length. It is only 5 days. But The ens result in not pancakee 🙂
Hi Alex, The surface of your Marples gouge looks unusual…as if it’s pitted. What do you think of the newer Marples? My husband gave me a set years ago and since watching your sharpening classes, I’ve actually been able to get a good edge! I really enjoy all the history and comments you share about tools, other carvers and why you design parts of your work the way you do. Talking out loud about what you’re thinking as a next move is very helpful. I watch you on a large monitor which makes for excellent viewing. I’ve actually tried to blow the chips off your work before! How’s that for being in the moment! I just love your classes!
My Marples are antique. Marples and Sons. The first known mention of the name ‘Marples’ dates back to the 1540s in Baslow, Derbyshire. The family lived there until approximately 1750, when they relocated to Sheffield. I love old antique Marples.
