Ok so my GF has this thing about buying me old rusty bent up tools from her yard sale jaunts. A couple of weeks ago she comes home all excited with this old rusty rasp that she got for 50 cents! She is so proud of her "bargain" that I didn't have the heart to throw it in the scrap pile with the bent c-clamps, twisted saws and broken screwdrivers. So for your view pleasure.......
My present!
After annealing and grinding the serrations off...
Laying out the design
Rough cutting to shape (not shown hardening and tempering)
Handle roughed out and attached
Handle finished and fit to my hand of course!
