I also can attest to the qualities of the Nicholson 49 and 50.  It is really
impossible to compare them to ordinary files or rasps.  Another tool along
the same lines I like is the new Microplane files (Woodcraft sells them).

When I use the Nicholsons I feel like I could have been a patern maker, it
gives you that much control.  Half the battle is having the right tools.

Randy Roeder    You need a Nicholson no. 49 and a 50-- and repaint your
house, not old tools.
