My favorate tool is just one of those hobby rasps. It is flat on one side and curves on the other side. One end has a course rasp and the other end is a finer file. I got it from Sears, but they can be found many places. I have other files and rasps that I use as well, but I find this one to be my go-to tool for shaping. The rasp is good for hogging away the wood and the file is enough to smooth out the heavy scrapes, or remove small amounts of wood. Then I work with sandpapers. Scrapers do work well also.
I have every intent to closely document one of my stock jobs and post a full tutorial on it.
