I bought a spokeshave on ebay to carve hunting bows, but it wasn't exactly what I expected. Today, it came in the mail. My mom hollered from the computer in the kitchen that a box came in the mail for me and when she did I thought, "Yes, my shoveshave is here." When I went to the dining room to retrieve it, I saw this small box sitting on the table for me. I lifted the box up, and it was very light. I took it to my room to open it and pulled out this ity bitty little spokeshave. It would be great if I was carving a mini bow for a figurine or something. After I discovered that the spokeshave was the wrong size, I went to the ebay page where I purchased the item and sure enough the description stated a length of 3 1/2 inches. I should have checked the size! I guess you can say I was expecting something a little bigger?
Lesson: The next time you go on ebay to buy something, make sure it is the right size. Even if you are certain about the size, still check. I was certain the spokeshave I bought was going to be as larger and didn't bother to check the size and look what happened! Don't make this mistake!
