Charles Guest has not been to the forum in 2 months. He described himself as “old as dirt”. He had a tremendous fund of knowledge, especially hand tools. I enjoyed his spirited debates with other experts on the forum.

Hopefully he is staying warm and enjoying the winter. Probably curled up watching Roy Underhill shows.
Agreed Mark. I don't always contribute, but I check in regularly and always appreciate reading his contributions.
Still kicking around!Quote:

Good to see you’re still kicking, Charles!
How about good morning. It is a good day to be here?
I’m only sharpening to 30,000 grit. I don’t think that is enough. Should I go to 50,000?Quote:

CHARLES! Glad to see you! Just when the thread devolves into shiny, fancy, expensive tools required, or jigs made of ivory or brass, you and Warren come in to
get things back to woodworking.
Thanks Mark and all -- I'll try to check back in more often.Quote:
