Karl's winding sticks were beautiful. When I started I bought a four foot length of angled aluminum, cut it in half, and painted a black stripe on the top of one. They work great
Evapo-Rust is your friend. I restored a No. 2 last year. I completely disassembled it then soaked it, followed by scraping/sanding/polishing and repainting....
They recently had a social media promotion where you could find redeemable codes on their website for tools. It turned into a giant mess where they were lying about the codes being available just...
No problem, John. Glad you found them useful! The only thing better than one pair of the board and plane... is a second set.
I upgraded from a homemade shooting board and Veritas low angle Jack to the shooting plane and board in February. I knew I wanted one, but after trying it out at the Woodworking Shows, I was in...
Looks like Jim already linked my post from when I restored mine. Go with the Evapo-rust. It works really great. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them!
I keep all the machines in the garage (which is a complete disaster right now) and this is just my space for my neander activities. My woodworking bench is on the opposite wall
Thanks Jim! I've actually had a ton of requests for it and I think I'm going to look into selling it digitally
Thanks, I just got it. Says something about Husky's quality if you think it's a SnapOn! The top can actually be raised. I'm going to put a Moxon vise on it and use it as an adjustable height joinery...
Yeah, she really outdid herself
Some of you might remember seeing the Millers Falls No 2 I restored earlier this year and the picture I took of the exploded view. My wife surprised me last night and had it made into a poster for...
Fair enough :D different cheddars for different fellers. And thanks. I like the round handles too, but it was fun to play around with shapes
Thanks David! I always enjoy seeing the how to's so thought I'd share
Thanks, and yes they do. The ring came from walking through the store and my wife seeing one with that handle and me telling her I could make it. After some back and forth and her accusing me of...
Thanks Stan. It has crossed my mind to make some templates to batch these out to sell.
Three new walnut Charcuterie boards I made for gifts. The one with the butterfly is for my wife, and the other two are for friends. The piece I used for my wife's had a nasty knot that was...
It is the little things. Surround yourself with what makes you happy and it helps with the inspiration and process. Also, I'm a sucker for industrial metal objects. I just added a new to me metal...
Thanks Doug!
I recently experimented with West System Epoxy that I tinted with Dark Walnut TransTint. I had a piece of walnut that had a knotty spot separating from the rest of the board. I didn't want to scrap...
I know I saw somewhere, I just don't know where, that the Veritas Low Angle Jack doesn't fit in the track so isn't compatible with the shooting board. Only their shooting plane and shooting sanders...
This is one of the only reasons I use Instagram. There are a lot of talented people out there sharing their work
My wishlist is still messed up. It has items that I removed awhile ago and some are missing. The shooting board isn't even on the website anymore
I see there are some products missing (shooting board) and my wish list seems to be an older version than what it was yesterday with different items. It also lost some functionality with sharing. ...
You're right, full disclosure when I made the post. I however see Woodpeckers bombard all the Instagram makers every time a new "revolutionary" product is released. I did want to support Blue...
