From a mini-project featuring a selection of tools from far off years on my father's farm in Morayshire and which now reside in my garden hut. These hand tools could be sixty or more years old and have a 'rustic character' missing from their modern day counterparts. It's a shame I don't have access to my dad's old tool shed on the farm, as it would have made a great background with its stone walls and racks of miscellaneous tools along with gouged, wooden benches with their bolted-on vices. As a youngster, I could potter for hours on end in the farm tool shed; that was long before the days of health and safety.

 

The photograph was made in my home-studio and lit only by the modelling lights of my Elinchrom flash units. The sepia toning aids the feeling of antiquity.

 

A man is crouched down by a motorcycle, using tools to make repairs. It's a bright day in a peaceful neighborhood. The scene shows focus and determination in his work.

Bean grater, or so it declares.

This didn't shape as well as Adam had thought it might; mostly because it wasn't basswood. :)

 

But through this demo I did get to see the Auriou rasp known as "The Hog" in action, and I ordered one.

More practice doing drawing in photoshop. Done predominantly with paths, filling those with a color and then using blending modes to change the appearance.

Had some scraps, thought a try square would make a nice little side project, and an opportunity to practice my chip carving. Pleased with the result.

I'm not sure if I made it clear enough in the video, but the primary knife is the one that should NOT have any bevels. You SHOULD have bevels on the stab knife, however. Do not remove those.

 

This video just covers some basics about chip carving. To learn more, I highly recommend the book by Wayne Barton called The Complete Guide to Chip Carving.
