About Splinters with Gary Rogowski

This podcast series is a look at furniture building from a veteran maker, designer, and author. The episodes are practical, philosophic, witty, and irreverent. Gary was a former contributing editor at Fine Woodworking Magazine, and founded The Northwest Woodworking Studio, A School for Woodworkers, in Portland, Oregon in 1997. He has no illusions about the value of this work in today’s culture of fast and furious and disposable. Making art, building furniture, is work that is useless and beautiful, and necessary for those who produce it. Creativity feeds the soul like nothing else can.

This is from Gordy C. I don't know where he's from, but it's a sharpening stone flatness issue. Is it possible that my basic Norton flattening stone is not that flat? Overall, for sharpening, I used DMT Duo Sharp Plates for general work, new blades or purchased used stuff, or re-establishing the primary bevel, and 4000, 8000, and 10,000 waterstones for final honing and polishing. Off of my DMT plates, I have a nice even scratch pattern across the bevel. […]
