re: Wood Chisels - Buying, Restoring, Sharpening and Using

Interesting idea using the digital angle gauge to set the honing angle. I suppose you should zero it out on your stone and bench as those might not be level.  

I bought a set of unhandled Narex Richter chisels over a year ago with the intention of turning my own handles.  I even bought a set of figured maple turning blanks when I spotted them on sale  but have yet to muster up the round toit.  Part of my procrastination is deciding what shape to make them.  Anyone have a shape that they really like?
