Paul Sellers
Published 13 Mar 2017Paul shows how to sharpen a gouge using his standard method, rocking the gouge side to side. He uses flat stones, in this case diamond stones in coarse (250), fine (600) and super fine (1200) grit, followed by a strop charged with buffing compound. Then you’re ready for carving.

I come from 5 years tuition at Rycotewood Furniture Centre with a further 1 year working as an Artist in Residence at the Sylva Foundation. I now teach City and Guilds Furniture Making at Rycotewood as of September 2018.

I discontinued this at the start of 2019 to focus solely on video creation and teaching.
During the week, I film woodworking projects, tutorials, reviews and a viewer favourite ‘Tool Duel’ where I compare two competitive manufacturers tools against one another to find out which is best. I also have a Free Online Woodworking School which you should definitely check out!

I can verify that the Narex and Stanley Sweetheart chisels are a good buy, and perhaps the best money-for-quality ratio you’ll find in non-vintage chisels (and if you know enough about the relative quality of long-gone vintage chisel brands, it’s unlikely you’ll be buying any of the tools he mentions in this video).

How to make a Saw Clamp | Paul Sellers
Paul Sellers
Published 5 May 2020It’s the small things that make our lives run smoothly, and making this saw clamp for saw sharpening guarantees vibration-free saw sharpening for life.
What’s not to like about a utility piece you made yourself from scrap without turning a single machine on too? Make one of these and you’ll be telling your grandkids that you made it 50 years ago and that you’ve been using it throughout your woodworking life!
We just thought we would let you know that Paul filmed this video (and a few more upcoming videos) by himself in the studio, and they were edited remotely by Natalie.
Our team has spent the last month or so working nearly entirely from home, which leaves the garage/studio free for Paul to use without increasing anybody’s risk from the virus.
Paul wanted to create some specific projects that could be made from scraps of wood using simple tools in order to encourage you all to make things at home if you can.
We think that Paul and the rest of the team have done remarkably well to create something uniquely tailored to the current circumstances, and we hope you enjoy this and the other upcoming videos.

How Sharp is your Plane? | Paul Sellers
Paul Sellers
Published 23 Apr 2020So you think you can sharpen your plane every few days. I wanted to dispel that mystery.
Planes need sharpening according to how much energy you need to make it cut. Experience has shown me that most woodworkers push their planes to the very limits of dullness. It’s a pure uneconomic waste of energy. I put this together to say Sharpen Up!
To find out more about sharpening a plane, see our video on Woodworking Masterclasses: https://bit.ly/2yGhyfq or for a beginner friendly guide, see Common Woodworking: https://bit.ly/2x6xeIM
