    Enjoy sharpening your tools! I had an attempt at a jarrah sg body in high school, I spent more time sharpening plane blades and the like than I did building it.

    Two nouns that don’t belong together in a sentence, “Jarrah” and “Hand saw”.

    I hacked my body blank out of recycled jarrah wharf stringers. I had to sharpen two chainsaw chains, a table saw blade and a bandsaw blade. I’m not going to quantify how many times I sharpened plane blades and carving chisels, it was a lot. If you attacked it with a handsaw and you made any progress with it, you’ve got my respect

    I could get about 3/4 of the way through with a hand held circular saw and finished off with the hand saw. Took me about seven attempts to get something I might be able to work with.
