This is off subject but this is my new favorite tool Stanley surform rasp they come flat shaped or round. You can shape a neck in a few minute with one of these.

Yup. I use it on oak all of the time. I finish off prior to sanding with a scraper.

Note to those in more northern climes: if you can't get a scraper or can't get one at a decent price at a hardware store, look for a store selling cross country ski equipment, in particular tools for re-tarring bases. I got mine a Mountain Equipment Co-op for about $8.00 Cdn. Bases have to be fine scraped as part of the dressing.

Well I bought the bandsaw from Home Depot yesterday and will be getting some other suggested tool in the near future. I had a gift card to finance these purchases so I'm not out any of my own money. Buikding should commence very soon. I have a few projects to do around the house first.
