Scraping not sanding

Recommended Posts

I've used scrappers for a long time. Not sure they would work well for scroll saw projects, but maybe used gently. Once you learn to create the correct burr, scrapers work great, Both with and across the grain. I've also used pumice, rotten stone and even cigar ashes to perfect a finish. It's quiet and very therapeutic. It was in my "French Polish" period. lol

Hav e you scraped wood instead of sand?

 

“How to Use a Cabinet Scraper | Woodworking†—

 

I did not know this until yesterday. Scrape to smooth wood surface.

I might try this.

Depending on what i need to get done.Sometimes a razor blade will work shaving off minuscule top coats other time a paint scraper is needed!
