Stumpy is correct, because the length of the side apposite the angle is the same on both methods, if a micro bevel is honed o the steel. An edge straight off the grinder is good enough if you want...

I have an Excalibur Sliding table for sale for $400. It is hooked to a Delta contractor saw that I wood sell if the price for 350 if taken together. The saw has a new Delta Tee fence. I would prefer...

Thanks a lot guys ( for discussing this). Been on the fence for a few years. Kind of decided to get the Saw Stop version when I got around to it. I read what people were saying about the Harvey and...

It doesn't fit at all it was just a flat landing spot at the time and I didn't have a spot for it at the time of the picture.

I have a 605 that had a corner busted off. I welded the corner up but it didn't turn out as well as I had hoped for. I think it is better than having the corner gone. I am getting back to it about 15...

My question is what is it going to cost you if you wish to buy a #7 that is ready to go. How long are you willing to wait to get a #7? And at what is the cost you are willing pay? From experience,...

I didn't stone the edge on anything. I kind of wanted to see how it worked. I rolled a small burr, thinking it is easier to role a larger burr than start over. The first picture is on Red Oak. next...

Yes, you can flex the blade. Dose it help? Yes. It really help take a wider shaving. I tightened the screw against the blade and then turn it maybe 1/16 of a turn.

I bought a Hock scraper blade scraper from Lee Valley for my Stanley #80. I was wondering because It is a lot thicker than the standard blade, cost a lot more too. I rolled a slight burr and took it...

I never though of having two. When I get two someone seems to talk me out of one. It is a good idea to have two, thanks.

I love them. I recently bought a scraper blade for my 80 made by Hock . Haven't really had a chance to use it yet, to cold in my shop. Personally I can't say enough good things about the Stanley #80....

I can do $250 plus shipping. I collect Keen Kutter K series planes and I have two K8s and I need a K7 flat bottom, Although the 608 is the one Lie-Nielsen copied, and priced at $550plus tax, it is...

If you are considering a #7 there is not a better plane out there for the money. It is the last one I ever plan on doing.

Antique Oil by Minwax. It is a wiping varnish, but has a lot of BLO in it. Many will give you a receipt for mixing a wiping varnish but then yo have to buy 3 different finishes, not cost effective. I...

$300 shipped is a lot easier to swallow than $550 plus shipping for a new LN. But #7's are a lot more in demand than 8's. On the personal side I am more interested in a Keen Kutter K8 flat bottom and...

I have a Stanley Bailey 4 1/2 flat bottom plane for sale. As to what type I am not sure. It has 3 Patent dates which makes it either a 11 or 12, But both the knob and tote although made by Stanley...

I have a bedrock 608 flat bottom plane for sale. I do not have a clue as to what type it is nor do I care. The sides have been precision ground square to the bottom. The bottom has been precision...

There is not one tool in the world that is dangerous. Also how many die each year in car accidents. Yet nobody wants to talk about that. The care in itself is not dangerous. Or how many die from lung...

Doug,

Your statement, in my humble opinion, generally don't need to be reground, I agree with you. I have said all along that to make a plane work properly all it needs is to be sharp.
