Skew Chisel
—A very versatile tool that can
be used for planing, squaring, V-cutting, beading,
and parting off. The skew chisel is flat, double-
ground with one side higher than the other
(usually at an angle of 20-
40˚). Figure 25 shows
an example of a skew chisel.
•
Scrapers
—Mainly used where access for
other tools is limited, such as hollowing
operations. This is a flat, double-ground tool that
comes in a variety of profiles (Round Nose, Spear
Point, Square Nose, etc.) to match many different
contours. Figure 26 shows an example of a round
nose scraper.
•

off work. This is a flat tool with a sharp pointed
nose that may be single- or double- ground.
