: I'm currently building my first strip built kayak (Outer Island) and decided
: that I would borrow or buy the tools required for the job as needed. Today
: I was at my local woodwork supply store checking out the spokeshave. Now
: this is the first time I ever seen one of these tools and as most of you
: know there is not much to them. I was suprised, however, to find out that
: two different types are available, a flat bottom and a round bottom. The
: round bottom spokeshave was acually part of a kit that contained both
: types. So I was wondering what you guys that used these things regularly
: have to say.
: Thanks.

I seldom use them, but, I know it takes a nack to get it done right. Practice on some other wood besides your boat.
