Burnished my first card scraper yesterday and tried it on a scrap piece of pine. The shavings I'm producing are powdery, though bigger than what I get via sanding, but there are very few identifiable "curls". It *does* work, though it took 100 passes or so to remove a small, shallow scratch in the piece of pine. The scraper certainly doesn't get hot, as some people describe.
I see that some have mentioned that soft woods aren't the best to scrape, but I don't know what the results should look like. Should I see something better?
Thanks
