spotted on Amazon, so, just curious whether it does as it says on the tin and if anyone has found it useful??

Hi Sue, BigGrin

Not used one of these, but looking at it I see no reason why it would not work. Its along the same lines as the shape scrapers, but I would think you would need to run a plank through a few times to get the angle shown in the pics.

I can see that if the provided planks are not exactly cut with the grain then picking the wrong direction to scrape would cause some ugly jagged disasters!
No intention to buy, was wondering if anyone had used it.

That`s a good point Sue. Even with a half decent plank if the blade snags then it will split the plank in who knows what direction. I`ve always used a bit of sandpaper and it works. Blink
