Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Sharpening: A Woodworker's Guide takes one of the most important aspects of maintaining a successful workshop and breaks it down into all of key areas in an easily-accessible manner. Keeping tools sharp is one of the most fundamentally important disciplines to ensure top-quality results. This book will show the reader how.

Aimed at both those new to woodworking as well as the experienced woodworker, Sharpening: A Woodworker's Guide is broken down into three main sections: sharpening by hand, machine sharpening and putting the theory into practice. Traditional sharpening techniques and tools are covered as well as those using the latest innovations for both hand and machine sharpening. Areas covered include: sharpening with oilstones, waterstones and diamond stones; correct methods for holding tools; power grinders and grinding wheels; using jigs and tool rests.

Includes index.
