My Growth Rings with Scott Markwood
SHOP NOTES:
I've shared photos of my homemade steady rest on the @MyGrowthRings Instagram feed and since my schedule got side-tracked this weekend I figure it was a good time to share it with you. I also take a few minutes to show my "candy cane-style" Shopsmith chisel holder and take one more stab at trying to explain how and why I made my honing hand-wheel, or "Dingus" as it is now known.
