hollyshave7.jpgCompleted spokeshave236 viewsSanded with fine, extrafine & superfine 3M pads, spit coat of blonde shellac, and a coat of clear Mylands wax, then buffed a bit ... not your usual looking spokeshave. Works well too. Last time I made a spokeshave was a decade ago, so this was a fun revisit as a first real project in getting back to the workshop after a long recovery from breaking a leg. The LV kit made it a bit easier too, but making a shave isn't hard if you have something suitable for a blade.Charlie Driggs
