Folks,

I am need of a Patternmaker's rasp(s) as I'm trying to complete a rocking
chair. I need to feather in the edges of the joints (arms to seat, legs
to seat, legs to rockers).

I am looking at the Nicholson ones (#49 and #50), but I also read that
the production quality of these particular rasps are not great.

Rather than spending upwards of $100 per rasp or more any suggestions?

Thanks,

MJ

Just a thought, while the Nicholsons may not be great they might be good
enough for this one project especially if they are inexpensive. Used
daily the $100 ones would be a bargain.
