Nicholson pattern-maker's rasp

摘要

My favorite hand tool has become my #49 pattern-maker's rasp by Nicholson (ApexHandTools.com). It cuts aggressively with great control. I was originally inspired by the late Sam Maloof and his use of the rasp when he was making his rocking chairs, and by my instructors at the North Bennet Street School while I was learning how to carve Chippendale chairs.
