spokeshaves!
Like a plane with handles, a spokeshave makes it easy to control
the depth of cut for a perfect surface.
Two styles available: flat face for work on outside curves,
and round face for use on inside curves.
The Spokeshave is a tool used to round out your flute as demonstrated in our video. However, an alternative to using the spokeshave, you may want to put your router to work rounding the flute with a beaded round over bit. Rockler part number 90086.
