Good rouging tool. That seems like a good way to get an initial shape before you come in with a spokeshave.

This is FREAKIN COOL!!! Thanks for sharing, I can’t wait to make one. May solve some of my curved card scraper blues.

great tool and the simple shape of the maple handles really looks nice. Since I happen to have an electric pencil sharpener in my shop that just stripped its main gear, I think I will have one soon too. thanks for the idea.

Nice tool! It amazes me of what tools and projects people come up with.

Looks interesting might have to try it.

Neat tool Timbo.

Very cool. I once thought about how well pencil sharpener helix cutters perform, but could not think of how to put them to use in woodworking.

In the link, they show it being used perpendicular to the work, but when I first saw your pic I assumed it would be used more like a file, closer to parallel to the work. I wonder if there is any difference used that way.

Thanks for sharing. I will have to make one of these for myself.

Now that’s a clever little roughing tool that I may duplicate, if I ever come across an old pencil sharpener…

Thanks for posting, Timbo!

It’s interesting I bet I could add power to it, I could use it on walking sticks.
