Reblogged from Lost Art Press:
During the last eight years I've tried to refine how I explain how to use a handplane to students. The biggest problem the students have isn't ignorance. I wish that were the case. Instead, their biggest problem is they have been flooded with so much contradictory information that they are paralyzed.
So I've been trying to increase the signal and decrease the noise so they can focus on what is important.
