The Brian Boggs shave horse always seemed liked a fun project to tackle. Lots of moving parts, unusual joinery, mechanical levers, springs, angled legs. There's no shortage of challenges involved in making one of these for your shop. It's incredibly rewarding to make and for some work holding needs, it's simply the best, and safest, tool for the job.

A shaving horse is basically a foot-operated clamp. The lower jaw supports the workpiece while the upper jaw presses down on it in response to foot pressure. This is an ideal arrangement for working with spokeshaves and drawknives because the harder you pull with the tool, the more pressure you naturally exert with your feet to maintain your balance. And the more pressure you exert with your feet, the more clamping force you exert on the workpiece.
