Shear scraping is a recently enhanced method of woodturning which relies on the presentation of the scraper at a shear angle. The technique offers some significant advantages over conventional scrapers. 45° Shear Scrapers - The 3/8'' square shank sits firmly on the tool rest and presents the cutter at a 45° angle to the work piece when used in either direction. This is due to the unique cutter seating position. Each tip can be re-positioned several times before re-sharpening becomes necessary.
