I was looking thru my scrap plywood for a sink cutout to make a false bottom for my lunchbox planer to plane thin stock and happened on a really, really old cut out with formica top that I must have scrounged many, many years ago. It's actually plywood instead of the compressed sawdust stuff, and there is absoulutely no cup to it. I lucked out again I guess.

spoken like a true scrounger! None of this gloating over spending big money on tools.

That savours of the same pleasure achieved by finding just enough of the right kind of screw/nail/thingy at the bottom of The Kitchen Drawer.

Priceless.

I dream of the day that happens, always a day late and dollar short for me in this department!
