My best scrapers are made from my old mitre saw and skil saw blades. I cut em up with an angle grinder and it leaves the bur on naturally.

I like that okie!!  Looks like every scraper you'll ever need you could even scrape one of those poplar paddle bows ;) >:D

Now if only i could find someone with an angle grinder...

Cool!

 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

  I bought all kinds of scrapers. But half sissors eye, glass lens for dipps sppons with a edge grinded on also for dips. I have to 2 fix blade knives I've maked I've formed to up and put  handles on each side works great. I bought some sort of a single wooden handle cabent scrapper looks turn centery. Removable diffenent size (thickest) blades. Works really well for removeing lot's of wood. Big long wide shavings. I use differnt scrapers diffent woods,bows. It all depends. Some seams to work better than others on differnt bows.
  WHATS WITH THAT. Just the way it is.
