welshwarrior Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Does anyone know where to get a Dragon Hand Cut Rasp set from in the UK. I can find the US site but would rather buy from the UK. http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Tools/Files/Dragon_Hand-cut_Rasp.html Or Cabinetmaker types recommend another rasp to cut walnut fast but cleanly.

welshwarrior Posted January 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Got cabinet makers rasps but like the Dragons as they start wide come down to a sharp point so I can use the rasp in hand for large and small areas and the shift a lot of wood quick.

welshwarrior Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Thanks I manned up today and got on with it without the dragon rasp got 5 stock extensions on it ok but not as fast or clean with the cabinet makers rasps. Guess I'll have to just order a set up from the States. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
