At its most basic, it is a sharp edge wedged into the center of a handle used to shape wood. In its more modern iteration, unsurprisingly, it was used to shape the spokes of a wheel. Since then, its usage has expanded from wagon wheels to shaping or smoothing parts for nearly any handmade project. The basic design for this class comes from a boxwood shaver produced by T. Pilkington in the mid-1800’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this class, Rusty will guide you through taking a block of Jatoba wood and transforming it into a useful shop tool. Taking a template, you will transfer it to your block of wood, and begin shaping it using a combination of saw and chisel work. Once it begins to resemble a spokeshave, you will then work on aligning and mating the blade to it. Finally, the class will wrap with finishing work such as shaping and smoothing the handle, personal ornamentation, and discussion about what to use to protect the spokeshave from rust and wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile there are many woodworkers that have a spokeshave (or five), there are few woodworkers that have a spokeshave as unique as one made by their own hand. The cost of the class includes all materials, but what you will leave the class with can be considered priceless!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFor your safety, when attending a hands-on class, be sure to wear closed toe footwear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor questions or comments, please email \u003ca href=\"mailto:classes@highlandwoodworking.live\"\u003e Highland Woodworking Classes \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca name=\"moreinfo\"\u003e \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"addinfo\" style=\"background: #E0D7C6;\"\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca data-prev-url=\"http:\/\/www.highlandwoodworking.live\/meetourwoodworkinginstructors.aspx\" href=\"https:\/\/info.highlandwoodworking.live\/meetourwoodworkinginstructors.aspx\"\u003e Meet the Highland Woodworking Instructors \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Highland Woodworking","offers":[{"title":"Saturday February 6 2027","offer_id":53237895823642,"sku":"993936","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0904\/5167\/3370\/files\/Tchernis-4-d.jpg?v=1793134373"},{"product_id":"sharpening-with-jim-dillon","title":"Sharpening with Jim Dillon","description":"\u003ch5\u003eClass Details\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5:30pm - 8:30pm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass Size: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHands-On Workshop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe provide all tools and materials.
