Thanks Gary,
when I was at the woodworking show in KC I received some 1on 1 instruction on the scraper. It was very helpful But I’m sure it take practice! It would be great if Paul would have courses on sharpening all tools.

An interesting note; I took a class on tuning up a hand plane and I brought an old Stanley #4 and another student brought a brand new Wood River plane. It took twice as long to flatten and polish the Wood River than it did the Stanley. I an fairly certain that the reason was the flatness of the original surface and not that the Wood River steel was harder. Any opinions???
