Woodpeckers honing
I see on page 8 of the latest Aust Wood Review a well written article on the Woodpeckers by a well known forum sharpening tragic.
Well done on being published, Ernregards

Thanks Nick. And thanks to NeilS for his consulting role.
It was hard work making the change from 'having a play' to aiming for a fair and proper test reported in an accessible way.
If WP can offer some of the coarser grades of 3M lapping film then the system would be an all round sharpening setup, not just honing.
And we all know that red things go faster ;-}Cheers, Ern

Just to add by way of disclosure:
1. I paid for the WP honing plates cos Aust Wood Review don't do disclosure statements for freebies. Freebies are provided to reviewers only for low cost items.
2. AWR did offer to pay for the review but it was too much messing around. I declined. The editor did kindly send one of these afterwards:
Super Square - Australian Wood Review
Nice bit of kit.
The honing plates are available from
http://www.woodworksupplies.com.au/
and Grahame and his team are knowledgeable about their stock.Last edited by rsser; 19th September 2011 at 03:37 PM. Reason: Freebie caveats
