Hey all, newb here. I’m building my first workshop in my basement with hand tools only (might add power tools later) and looking for some advice.

I’m still undecided on a sharpening setup, so wondering what other people like. How fussy are water stones, and how do you manage keeping them true? Do you have any cool tricks or things you want to show off?

Carving is what got me into wood working.

But yeah, it's different going from honing blades with a compound to needing to sharpen them.

I don't mind the process of sharing, but I've never really been exposed to it and I don't know much about it.
