Got a Worksharp 3000 for my birthday Thursday. I had tried a couple of times over the past few years to set up a plane or two with very little luck. Tried wet stones and a VS grinding wheel.

This is a picture of my results after playing with the Worksharp for less than an hour.

It's a pretty crappy old Montgomery Ward plane and I still have a lot to learn about setting up the plane, but those are the closest things to good shavings I've ever managed. I took a few of the biggest ones out to dinner with me last night. To my disappointment, none of the other couples shared my excitement.

It's clear to me that you need new friends.

Congrats on the new tool, and on working with sharper tools.
