Popular Post PostalTom Posted March 13, 2019 Popular Post Report Posted March 13, 2019 Got a new tool. A cabinet rasp, brand name Auriou. Ten inches long, with #9 grain, which is their way of grading the grit. I ordered it from Highland Woodworking back in Jan right after the new year, and it just came yesterday. i got intrigued by the video of how they are hand made, or hand stitched, in France. At $134.00, I hope I get enough use out of it to justify the price. Dadio, Gerald, Artie and 4 others 6 1 Quote
Grandpadave52 Posted March 14, 2019 Report Posted March 14, 2019 Congrats Tom on the new "member to the family." Thanks for the video too. Very interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed watching. I'm sure you'll enjoy the new rasp...Obviously a well made, hand-crafted tool. Artie and Gunny 2 Quote

In my bank account's defense, I had a $100 gift card from Christmas, so it covered most of my purchase. The card came from my wife, which means that I still paid the whole amount, but it didn't feel like it. If I get another Auriou rasp, it will probably be a finer grain, and then no more. Edited March 30, 2019 by PostalTom I need to start proofing these things before I submit them. Cal and HARO50 2 Quote
