You will also be introduced to wood selection, tool selection, and tool sharpening. Students will test their skills while working on a small turning project. Students should bring suitable eye protection such as safety glasses, goggles, or a face shield. If you have problems with wood dust, a respirator or dust mask would be advisable.

Selecting, tuning and sharpening Planes and Chisels

with Bruce Helart

Sunday, September 13, 2026, 11 AM - 2:30 PM

Open to Any woodworker Bring your own tools and sharpening equipment. Each student will have the opportunity to sharpen some of their own planes and chisels. The class will be focused primarily on sharpening bench tools for woodworking. However, the information and techniques will apply to sharpening any cutting tool. The intent is to make sharpening easier and eliminate all the mystery and confusion. Attendees will learn how to bring a blade to razor sharp quickly and consistently. There will be a bit of discussion at the beginning but much of the time will be dedicated to actual sharpening work. In this three hour+ session we will discuss and compare the various sharpening methods including water stones, natural stones, sand paper, diamond plates and stropping. We will cover sharpening by hand with as well as various power sharpening tools and methods. We will also compare sharpening jigs and their use and setup. We will also discuss bevel angles for various tools and the benefits and trade-offs of these options. I’ve been woodworking with hand tools for 30+ years and I’ve used with most every sharpening system out there. Sharpening is simple when the basics are understood and the process is repeatable and fast. Each student should bring their own tools for sharpening and any sharpening equipment they have including any stones and jigs. If they do not have their own sharpening equipment we will provide it for the class.
