Made You Look: Construct a Sharpening Station

We’ve been internet hosting a month-to-month construct problem on Discord. It’s been a good way to construct group amongst woodworkers. A pair weeks in the past we invited Michael Cullen to have a look at undertaking submissions, which have been a number of inventive concepts for pencil packing containers. You’ll be able to take a look at the channel to see our recorded Zoom assembly.

This month’s immediate is making one thing that “retains you sharp.” A little bit digging round for concepts led me to this video, which is an ideal resolution for my waterstones. I like that this shops neatly away and retains my stones protected, and I plan to purchase just a little additional rubber cork to line my vise as properly.
