William: I took a class from Nick Gravagne in Sacramento last month. He had all of his favorite tools for notching, and did a demonstration of notching for us. I believe he made his own chisels. I couldn't describe them adequately, but in the class, of course, everyone wanted to know where to get the right tools. The place to start would be Mazzaglia Tools, 978 372-1319 (from the 2002 Resource Guide). They have everything you need and more. Paul McCloud San Diego > [Original Message] > From: William R.
