Homemade Spokeshave and Blade

I could have bought one these old style wooden spokeshaves but decided it would be more fun to make one. I’ve never used this type before and always wanted to try one. I have a couple of Stanley 151’s, I actually prefer this new one. It’s more comfortable and works far better.
My Stanleys have terrible blades, they’re very thin, don’t hold an edge and for that reason they never get used. This week I also made a new blade for the Stanley, I didn’t make a video but it was easy to make and vastly improved. I may make a video at another time.
I also thought about making another one like this wooden spokeshave but with adjustable threaded posts and thumb screws. There isn’t any real need to make one like that as this works and adjusts perfectly well but would be an interesting build.
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

looks great! if you make a holder bracket with a wooden handle for your firebrick door, they wont break so quick. i know this, cos i have the same set up as you. also, close the back door unless you are using it. keep up the great work

I couldn't find any bevel-up spokeshaves at a decent price at flee market so I bought O1 flat stock (near 1/8" thick) a year ago to make one and other tools. But you know how things work, I've only made some little knives with it. Sure this video will help me to finally make one, thank you. I think I'll put a brass wear plate at the front.

I think you are impressive for going old school! I love seeing trial and error learning so I can learn more. Old school blacksmiths are a dying breed...it's great to see the younger generations such as yourself stretching your knowledge and sharing with us!
I like a man that shows his mistakes as well as his great projects, shows us he's just like us. Keep up the good work Pask I like your channel.

I love how you show your mistakes and you never get stressed out, no swearing or throwing tools, impressive
Man do I like your videos! Even the fails end up wins for those of us who are learning. Makes me believe I can make one myself, and if i make a mistake fix it and move on. Goodonyamate Goodonya!
You showing all your mistakes and talking us through what happened each time really had a good impact on me. Finally someone that's human. This is the first video of yours I've seen and I'm subbing because of your awesome character, craftsmanship, and humility.

agreed. someone willing to show you what not to do threw their own mishaps is useful for those on full stupid witch I have myself been in the past. not to mention starting from raw materials he's not only a good sport about it he's a good instructor for it. reminds me of shop class illustrated signs posted at every station of what not to do with or around the tools. with the short and to the point little paragraphs. it adds value to his page, in my opinion, thank you, Pask mistakes or not an excellent approach to instruction. judging by your accent you will appreciate the jester, Pask. tenacity and a propensity to insist on correctness is not necessarily a bad thing most times.
I just wanted to say thanks for the video, especially with the "mistakes" left in. It was nice to see the whole process and of course the final result was well worth it.
Finally i have found good company on internet and this great man with such huge positive vibes and qualities to learn. Salutations to all of you here. I am unskilled and want to learn....
I get an unreasonable amount of joy from watching your videos and recognizing other tools from build videos. Thank you for this stuff. seriously.
You mistakes are where I learn soooo much! Thank you sincerely for showing the cockups as well as the beautiful end results of your projects.
I don't care what anyone else calls it, THAT, Sir is art...thank you so very much for doing this, the watching is a delight, and the learning of how is inspiring. Ed
Warts and all! We all learn when you do, Neil. Thanks!

Great now I have another tool I need to make. But seriously, great video. I enjoy how you show your entire process, I then don't waste time reinventing the wheel. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for leaving in the mistakes, and how you over came them. This made for an enjoyable video to watch and learn from. Thank you for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome build, Pask. Love that you show what works...and sometimes what doesn't. Crafting is a journey and you capture that so well in your videos.
As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement kzread.infoUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!
Thank you Pask! IMO this is the best woodworking channel out there right now. Keep up the fantastic work!
Great video! I really appreciate that you'r not afraid to show the mistakes along the way and that you don't give up! The end result is fantastic!!
I didn't know I needed a spoke shave until NOW! Thanks for sharing. Always enjoy your channel.

This video is a perfect example of why I LOVE your channel. You show your mistakes and explain why it was a mistake. Nothing in life is perfect and things do not always go as planned. Keep up the great work.
“Make it till you break it... and then make it again!” Love the persistence and the beautiful end product! Great as always.
kudos and respect, a man not afraid to show his mistake is a man worth watching.
What a great tool! Great job like always Pask!
Perfectly done - I like to see, that a woodworker like you makes midtakes, too! And that you show it! It helps me to learn and to be encouraged to try my projects. Thank's a lot!!!
Thank you for showing us and commenting the mistakes made in the process. It is comforting to see those happen even to experts like you, and we all learn a lot from them!
That looks awesome Neil. Great work even though you had some problems getting there. Glad to see that I’m not the only one that messes things up sometimes lol. I probably would have gotten really frustrated and tossed in the towel for the rest of the day on the project and eventually come back to it a few days later.
This was super helpful. I've been getting started with basic forging and I thought that a spokeshave might be a great beginner level project. Thanks especially for showing all the mistakes and what not to do. They will be very helpful when I try this out myself!

I appreciate you leaving the mistakes as part of the video and adding the corrections you've made. Keep up the good work
Glad to see both aspects of this build, the fail as well as the fix! Thank you!
It was nice to see the whole process and of course the final result was well worth it.
VERY nice project and, because I need one for some of the things I am going to be making and because I also am a Blacksmith of sorts, I will be making one as soon as the weather warms up a bit! Winters in Wyoming are not kind to old farts like me who do not have fully enclosed Blacksmith shop so, I'll be waiting for the weather to warm up a bit! THANKS for the great videos and all the tips you show us! CHEERS!

Nice job I like how u did it with a couple of redue. That's for sure the way it goes sometimes its hand crafted. REAL THINGS HAPPEN in process and that's something alot of folks on u tube or where ever, rather leave that out when should be left in for do & don'ts and shit happens. Teaching to stay with it not to give up. Score u a 10 of 10 Double Shakas🤙🤙
Your videos on making tools are the best, especially for those of us who can't afford to buy new and enjoy customizing each one to fit. We learn from your mistakes along with you. Thanks so much for the time and work you put into each tool and video.
Neil I always love watching your projects mate. Like others I really appreciate you showing when things don't quite work out; not only is the honesty refreshing, I actually really get a kick out of watching people like yourself come up with solutions. Inspiring stuff, thanks :)
The mistakes are part of the fun it's the problem solving and sticking with it. Great job.
Love the fact that you show the mistakes! Real world making! Cheers!

This channel is great, hands down one of my favourites. The value in showing the mistakes you make but more importantly how you learned from them is priceless.👍🏾
Very authentic - even the "failures & restating again and again" are great. Good HAND-craft √√√√√

Hi there from Portugal, Nice tool Obrigado(Thanks)
Beautiful OoPs and all..!!!! Love it, that was what blacksmithing was all about. I watch my grandpa make alot of this tools the same way . He was a old cowboy at heart and worked in the coal mines and road his horse to work everyday snow and all. He forged all his tools....
Brilliant. Enjoyed seeing the home-made tongues on this one. Look forward seeing the spokeshave on the next one...
Wow! Thanks for the awesome teaching

Very impressive spokeshave. I am glad you included all of the issues encountered along the way.
20 years ago I found a similar spokeshave in an old toolshop. It had been sitting their long time! It became my most favourite handtool, and still is. Well done on the make. Gives me hope to make one too, once this one gets too worn out!

Great video! You are very easy to listen to and watch. I also like the way you show your mistakes. I have a habit of trying to make something work rather than starting a part again. I think your videos show that it is easier in the long run to learn and start again. Less frustrating and a better result in the end. Keep 'em coming!
I must say, I really enjoy watching "all" of your videos. I also enjoy seeing the mistakes and having to start over. That alone is inspiring. Lots of people cut the mistakes out of their videos. So thanks for sharing. 👍
I really love the warts an all aspect of your videos it shows that we are all susceptible to bad luck sometimes..I often wonder how many other maker vids get edited to perfection

Thanks for showing the mistakes as well as the successes. It is good to know that someone with your skills and talent also makes them. Makes me feel less bad about some of mine. If we learn from them, they become a success.
You are just awesome Pask! Thank you for the great video!

Uses a homemade spokeshave to shape a homemade spokeshave. What's not to love? Happy New Year, Mr Pask.
Nice to see you included your mistakes and how you got over them! This is how we learn and make us better at what we do and make us humans.
I really enjoyed the sounds of various jobs just as they were presented. Try keep sounds amplified. Nice work.
Was gutted for you when the first one broke. No shame in moving on (and learning on the way) - it has to be like that or we'd never get anything done :) Fantastic result - and all the more interesting for the full process, warts and all!

Great video. That's what I call Yankee Ingenuity. You have excellent hand dexterity. It just goes to show that even when you have a fail learn from it and move on. Your spokeshave turned out to be a much better tool than the first one would have been. That tool works beautifully! Keep inspiring us to try to make things. Thanks!
Parabéns me inspirou produzir um spokeshave como este, obrigado por mais esta aula, grande Abraço!
Just a heads up on grinding/sanding/filing forged steel, the scale on the surface of the steel is incredibly hard and wears on belts/sandpaper quickly. If you take a grinding stone on an angle grinder to the steel to take off that scale it'll save you a load of time, and money on replacement belts. Cheers!

Pask, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching your videos especially the ones on creating your own tools. Thank you very much for sharing and entertaining I wish you the best God bless, from Texas.
All of my favorite builders/makers/artists like yourself, include their wrong turns and work-arounds. A much more thorough look at the process. And I appreciate that!
Looks a beautiful tool. Kudos for showing the missteps along the way, it’s brave but makes it relatable
OK, so a few mishaps on the way. So what. The end result was a beautiful tool which will be a pleasure to use for years to come. Thanks for sharing your work. Looking forward to the next project. Best wishes
It's hard for me to put in words just how much I appreciate that you show and talk through the mistakes you make.
This video was so instructive for to make this tool for myself. I think than i do it. VERY GOOD WORK, I LOVE IT SO LOT.
Iwould consider your style as part of a normal learning process. “ not a mistake”. I enjoyed your technique and I try to learn as you move forward. I try to watch each of sessions.
