Tool Sharpening with a Modified Worksharp 3000

(Editor's Note: Join us every day for new posts from the web's best woodworkers. You can check out our past content on our new blog page.)

Stumpy turns his Work Sharp 3000 into a super-duper sharpening machine that works without sandpaper and accepts Tormek jigs. Then turns his sarcasm loose on the viewer emails! (Who knew handplanes and popcorn had so much in common...)

Stumpy Nubs is the host of the “Blue Collar Woodworking” and “The Old-Timey Workshop”, two of the most popular woodworking shows on the internet. His unique style of woodworking “infotainment” and creative solutions to some of the workshop’s more challenging problems is just part of what he brings to the table. He can also build that table as well as anyone, make an award winning show out of it, write a witty article and design a new tool or jig, all before many woodworkers can finish a “cold one”. He’s learned the craft as many have, one splinter at a time, and he’s eager to share what he knows at Stumpynubs.com!

Each time it gets nicked, it must be resharpened, which takes valuable time. Not only does resharpening take time, but good chisels are expensive, and every nick in the […]
