Solving problems you didn't know you had in the most obscure way possible

"And now, it's time to hand this over to our tame race axe driver. Some say, he can live in the forest for six months at a time without food, and he knows of a secret tribe of only women where he is their God. All we know is, he's call the Styx!" - TazzieRob

Inspired by Tazzie Rob, I pulled out the draw knife and spoke shave. It's a warm, but nice day here, so I rigged up a little carving bench outside:






The draw knife was great at hogging off the wood, but I did run into some bigger chunks of tear-out. This was most likely due to operator error, I believe. A well sharpened draw knife can be something of a finesse tool in skilled hands; I wish I had a set of those hands around here somewhere......






Once things threatened to get out of control, I switched over to a spoke shave. The wood kept flying off and the head now snugs on to the start of the handle.  (yes, this means I have my head where my knob should be.)
