Line 1: [[Image:Card_scraper.JPG\|thumb\|right\|Card scraper in use]] A '''card scraper''' (also ~~known~~incorrectly called as a cabinet scraper which is actually a different tool) is a [[woodworking]] shaping and [[Wood finishing\|finishing]] tool. It is used to manually remove small amounts of material and excels in tricky [[wood grain\|grain]] areas where [[Plane (tool)\|hand plane]]s would cause tear out. Card scrapers are most suitable for working with [[hardwood]]s, and can be used instead of [[sandpaper]]. Scraping produces a cleaner surface than sanding; it does not clog the pores of the wood with dust, and does not leave a fuzz of torn fibers, as even the finest abrasives will do. == Types of card scrapers ==
