About this Event

Tool Sharpening Basics – a hands-on practical session

Event description

Blunt tools make every job harder. This small, hands-on workshop is a chance to learn the basics of tool sharpening with Angus, in a relaxed and supportive setting at Rebuild. The session is practical and informal, with plenty of time to have a go, ask questions and build confidence. Angus will demonstrate simple sharpening techniques and guide you as you practise; either on tools provided by Rebuild or on your own tools brought from home. With very small group sizes, you’ll get proper one-to-one support and leave with sharper tools and a better understanding of how to keep them that way.

What you’ll learn

  • The basics of sharpening common hand tools
  • How to assess when a tool needs sharpening
  • Simple techniques you can repeat at home
  • How to care for tools to keep them working well

What to bring

  • Your own hand tools to sharpen (optional)
  • Curiosity and willingness to have a go

Rebuild will also provide some practice tools if you’d prefer not to bring your own.
