  It’s funny how if you pay close attention to all the different videos about a particular topic, you can spot the “one” person who knows what they are doing. They don’t have a lot of rhetoric, they don’t try to sell you something, they don’t rely on fancy gadgets. Straightforward knowledge, practical details put together in a way you can understand. The card scraper is the tool I have loved to hate/hated to love over the years. Always saw the usefulness, just couldn’t get it consistently sharp. I will now. Instant subscription and a hearty thank you

  This needs to be a foundational course for woodworkers. &nbsp;<br>For the first time, I&apos;ve gotten the results I&apos;ve wanted (for decades really) from a card scraper. &nbsp;I&apos;ve been happy with all other edge tools, including my cabinet scraper, but never been satisfied with my sharpening on the card scraper. &nbsp;You&apos;ve solved the mystery. &nbsp;<br>Thank you! Thank you!

  My God, this is like a Catholic arriving at the Vatican, and being taught theology by the Pope himself.<br>(Here&apos;s a 64 year old cabinet maker and restorer who&apos;s eyes and ears are gaping wide). This is pure enlightenment.<br>God bless. Greetings from France.

  Best explanation on sharpening and using a scraper ever! &nbsp;Never knew one could lay it on its side and push it into corners. &nbsp;Thanks Brian!

  Dear Lord... It looks like you could crush a golf ball with forearms like that.

  Holy moly, this is groundbreaking. We need to teach people about grinding cards at a 90 degree angle. Brian is a genious for figuring this out.

  That sharpening approach must create a much stronger cutting edge than the method I have been using to this point. The explanation was super clear...this makes sense.

  I found this video to be very instructive. I have been using scrapers for years and had not explored many of the techniques you described. Thank you. Keep them coming.

  Some people are less picky with their technique, it still works, but the reflection with yours is superior. I&apos;ve used that tape trick a few times before it&apos;s great. I even use card scrapers for way more things than I should, anywhere I can replace sandpaper is a good place for a scraper.
