Just a heads up on some new tools. I just received the new Al Carruth's scraper from Stew-Mac. Stew-Mac tools can be hit or miss, but it is a hit for sure in this case. As a builder of arch top instruments, I can tell you that trying to turn a burr on a french curve scraper is a pain in the ass. To sharpen this you just lap it on a diamond sharpening stone and it works very well.
Also, I have had and used Irwin Quick Grip clamps for a while now, but until recently they have been a little big and expensive, The new micro size clamps are great. They are a perfect size and are two for $16 at Home Depot. I now have 20 of them and they are being used a lot.
