NOGA deburring tool

Another southpaw here, same learning curve with my Shaviv deburring tools. Another thing is to not be heavy handed and the tool work wonderfully. Thats a good buy for the money Jim.

Have the same tool and there’s definitely a learning curve (at least for me anyways). Took awhile to figure out how much pressure to apply so that it doesn’t chatter.

We lefties just have to assimilate to a right-handed world. Been doing it since elementary school.
Actually had to serve a detention in the 4th grade penmanship class because I wouldn't position my paper the right-handed way.
That was in Colorado, my third grade teacher back in Illinois had already showed me how to position the paper if you were left-handed.
She asked when she started the class and took a marker and a ruler and drew a line on your desk.
My father went ballistic and when he was finished that teacher was not very happy at all. Perhaps it was the fact that the personnel director for Jefferson County schools was a close family friend...

ah yes!, third grade, Sister Redemptia, the kid next to me, John Pinter, was left-handed, Sister said being left-handed was a sign of the devil, and proceeded to try to beat the devil out of him, with 2” wide x 1/2’ thick, maple yard stick. The poor kid took a severe beating over the year, he never was “corrected”, and went on to be the winingest left-hand pitcher the school ever had.

I, too was pressured at Catholic school to change from left handed to right handed while learning to write. Didn't work on me, either...
 
They did change' my Grandmother. Luckily I ended up in public schools and didn't have to change and ended up with a wonderful teacher for 3rd grade, Mrs. Baranowski... Bless her.
 
I'm in my late 30's and was born in small town Central PA. I didn't experience any knuckle smacking, but they sure tried to change me.
 
What do all these later posts have to do with the topic raised by the OP?
 
The systematic persecution and discrimination against Southpaws for ages! :grin:
And sometimes the conversation just gets side tracked. That is one of the many 'Friendly' things about this forum.
 
I never realized that Noga made left handed blades, thank you. Parochial school, several lefties in my class. We never were correctected or put down for lefthandedness. (We weren’t exactly celebrated either)
Used Noga deburring tools for decades.
