Hi all...with assistance from Jim I finally resurrected my original posting name of Spokeshave ...after some years posting as Spokeshave Returns
I chose the name Spokeshave as my father was a master woodworker...and I still have his original hand made spokeshave,...that he made together with chisel handles and a mortise gauge that he made as an apprentice after leaving schoolat 13....also his original apprentice papers.
that is great, spokeshave! as is your explanation. i was wondering. very, very moving and cool about your dad.
