To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In grinding a cutting tool, you must always aim to secure a concave end, a convex end will never cut. A tool ground at 60 de- grees to the face of same is usually ready for whetting. The whetted edge should never be ground away unless the chisel is nicked or otherwise in very poor condition. The grinding is complete when the bevel (B) reaches the cut- ting edge. Fig. No. 2. To whet or sharpen the iron after it has been ground, an oil stone is used. A good natural stone shou...ld be selected. Olive oil will bring better results than any other oil, although some thin machine oil will do. Should the stone become gummy, this substance may be removed by the use of kerosene. Many mechanics whet their plane iron in the manner as indicated in Figure No. 4. In whetting the iron avoid a rocking motion as this will dull instead of sharpen.
