Hi everyone:
Due to popular demand I am once again offering this training film in digital dvd format for those that are in need of instruction in the use of this historic wood working tool.
topics covered will introduce the student to background information such as the offset handle, the blade and how to sharpen it correctly, the proper use of the scoring axe, the broadaxe, doing layout on a round surface and then on the flat surface, finishing up a surface properly in line with the historic finishes represented in the older buildings across North America
I also have a nice training film on historic adzing which is a companion film to the broadaxing one, and it covers all the topics that deal with its use.
Both films are hands on type of instruction, I talk on various subjects, and then work stopping regularly to explain the why's and what's that deal with things such as how to stand, how to eye up and line a slightly bowed log as well as many other very necessary bits of information which are critical to obtaining an accurate finish surface.
for the months of October and November I am offering both topics for the price of one.
