How is a bench scraper made
How to Make a Bench Scraper / Dough Knife | Woodworking / DIY
welcome back to the workshop so what do
you do after you've already made
everyone in your family a cutting board
well make a whole crap-ton of these bed
scrapers let's get started first step is
to cut down the stainless steel each
piece is 4 inches by 6 inches so I put a
cut off wheel my circular saw and went
to work just make sure you're cutting
them the correct side of the sawhorse
[Music]
well it turns out sparks and cargo don't
mix very well but the day is saved by my
expert firefighting skills
next I cleaned up anything at a square
with flat disc Amani grinder
[Music]
after that I cleaned up any rough
patches on the belt grinder
[Applause]
[Music]
then I use my random local de santé to
clean up any tool marks on the synthesis
started what they need when other way it
supported it and it turns out the corner
grid is pretty close to the finish that
you see on muskets insane the steel
[Music]
now it's time to the mid working on this
working channel I got some ancient 1/2
an inch and a half by 12 turning blanks
I cut them down into four pieces
I saved the bait inside the storm each
piece of the wood you'll see why any of
the end of the video to cut the slot for
the blade I pulled it towards name in
the bandsaw in order to see the line I
found out if I wiggled the wood back and
forth the kerf widgets the perfect side
for the stainless steel
I took one of the handles let's cast out
a profile in it then I cut it out sanded
it smooth and used it as a template for
the rest of the handles
[Music]
after I cut out each one it's time to
shape them wear gloves for this if you
haven't accidentally sanded yourself
with a 36 grit belt
well it's something you want to avoid
ask me how I know
[Music]

thank you
[Music]
after they're all roughed out with 36
grit I switched to a 120 grit belt in
the backside of the grinder had the
perfect amount of slack to smooth out
the curves then I finish them up with
220 grit on the random orbital sander
assign each handle a blade and then used
epoxy to attach them
[Music]
there's a small bevel in the blade so I
ground that up next
[Music]
time for the sawdust I say I put a small
dab of superglue on the end of the
handles and then fill it in with sawdust
to have the gap in bandsaw left
then I sanded it smoother clean up any
epoxy the leader in the new life
[Music]
I did a final 400 sanding on each blade
put some salad bowl finish on the
handles and we're done
[Music]
[Music]
