Restoring and sharpening hand tools
Although not strictly guitar related, I do enjoy restoring antique hand tools. A lot of the
tools that I use on a daily basis have been in my family for several generations, and I often get approached by people who have their grandfathers planes but don’t know what to do with them. I am very happy to offer lessons on subjects such as how to find good antique tools, how best to clean them and sharpen them for use and how to make replacement handles where the old ones have split.
