[Woodcarver] A sharp tool

[Bill Judt]

Larry and all:

Yes, Ev's video is excellent. It will do the job.

BUT... keep in mind that Ev's way is not the only way. I'll bet every  
experienced carver (def: one who has consistently sharp tools :-) has  
a slightly different method, and each achieves the perfect angle and  
razor sharp edges.

It's just that Ev has been able to explain his method on video in a  
way that is easy to follow and makes sense to the most carvers.
It amazes me how he managed to do that. The only way I can teach my  
students how to sharpen is by hands-on and one-to-one.

Kudo's to Ev!!!

Blessings and Peace,

Bill

It has been suggested in the past, and I'm in full agreement, that the  
best
tutorial on sharpening is Ev Ellenwood's DVD called "Sharpening  
Simplified".  I
have yet to have anyone who studied the DVD ever tell me they didn't  
achieve
sharp tools.
