I have a couple of old wallpaper scrapers I would like to sharpen.
Brown wood handles and a 3 and 4" wide blade to sharpen.
What's the best way or angles please?
I have the chisel and plane jig and can fit the scrapers in it by removing the black knobs and plate and sliding blade in. This would probable let me put a sharp edge but not sure what is required?
I did wonder if I could use the square rest and sharpen a square edge as shown for a cabinet scraper on the side of stone?
Thanks
Is the blade flat or curved (see photos)?
If it is the curved type, you may be able to leave the blade in the handle and using a platform jig, set it for a steep angle so the beveled edge can be ground by resting the handle on the platform. Keeping it flat and square across the stone will be a trick, so I can see where if the chisel/plane blade jig can be use, it might work better. Not sure how well it would work to try to hold a curved one in that jig, however.

It's a triangular blade 4" wide, straight edge for the work edge, wood handle.
Square edge or angled.
