Stuart Batty teaches a basic class in how your tools cut and why they don’t. He does an excellent job of showing you what it takes to make a tool cut and why you have torn grain problems. This is an excellent class. Stuart also has a number of free videos that he made to help the beginner get a good start and help the rest of us do away with some bad habits.
