A Woodworking Hand Tool Manual on Chisels, Hand Planes, Saws, and Blade Sharpening

Published in the Handyman Club Library series, this hardcover instruction manual outlines the selection, maintenance, sharpening, and operation of traditional woodworking hand tools. The book covers hand planes (block planes, smoothing planes, jointer planes), chisels, backsaws, handsaws, hand scrapers, layout gauges, and carving tools.

Through step-by-step photography and technical diagrams, the guide details sharpening procedures using waterstones and oilstones, flattening plane soles, setting blade bevels, and tuning tool mechanisms. The manual provides practical instruction on cutting hand-mortise-and-tenon joints, dovetails, rabbets, and flush edge trimming.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Featuring detailed shop photography and precise blade sharpening instructions, this Handyman Club of America manual offers practical guidance on mastering non-powered woodworking tools and fine joinery.
