a coarse woodworking tool with a series of individually cut teeth or ridges, used for shaping and smoothing wood or other materials by abrasion
What is a "rasp"?
A rasp is a coarse hand tool used for shaping or smoothing rough surfaces, particularly in woodworking or metalworking. It has a rough surface with sharp, raised teeth that cut into the material when pushed or pulled across it. Rasps are often used for tasks like smoothing edges, shaping wood or metal, or removing large amounts of material quickly. They are available in different shapes, such as flat, round, or half-round, to suit various types of work. Rasps are ideal for creating more precise shapes and contours, especially on softer materials.
