[Woodcarver] old tool usage

[Old Joe]

Fred Cogelow developed a set of full size back bent gouges with Henry Taylor 
Tools a few years back.

I have a full set of them and they are great for difficult to reach spots on 
a large carving.

As Joe mentioned they work well with things like grapes, also noses, ears 
plus.

Keep them sharp and use them frequently.  You are lucky to have them.  Old 
Joe
