Thank you for showing this. I have a box of blades and guides but didn't realise they were for that 'funny looking' spoke shave in my tool box! Now, thanks to you, I know how to use it. Can't wait to give it a try!
Thank you for the kind words. The blades can be hard to find, so I'm glad that you were able to identify them. I hope you have luck putting them back to use.
It really depends on the wood you select. With straight-grained, easy-to-work species like walnut, cherry, or mahogany, it is pretty close to perfect. Woods such as oak or pine, or any wood with wild grain can tearout.
I'd like to. It's nickel-plated and I'm not sure how to clean it up without stripping off the nickel. I've tried some 4/0 steel wool, but it didn't do much.
