I have a number of Freud saw blades and router bits and have always found them first class.
I have a few of these in different lengths and find them quite useful for light-pressure jobs where the bearing surfaces are parallel or close to it. They are being superseded these days by the...
Jeff,
You asked:
<<Question on its usage: Do I need to wait 45 minutes between coats? Seems like when you wipe the shellac on it dries within about 10. And how many coats do you normally put...
Shellac and paste wax.
I have the 22 and have never felt the need for the 33.
Lewis,
I think you may find the answer varies with the type of plane. The new Veritas scraper, for instance, has a couple of bells and whistles the 112 doesn't, and it's not a lot more expensive...
Stefan,
I second Ed's comments about grinder speed. I used white and pink AO wheels on a 3450RPM 8" for years, even on carbon steel tools, and never (after a couple of learning experiences)...
I just finished setting up a new Delta slow-speed 8" grinder and the Wolverine system. This grinder isn't as cheap as the Woodcraft (or the variable speed Delta) but it's heavier (about 90 lbs IIRC)...
I don't think there's anything wrong with storing planes on their soles, but like all of us who had "lay 'em on their sides" dinned into us in shop class, I usually prop the sole up on a wood scrap. ...
The tale, continued...
Got my new CDD 12V on Wednesday, but the shop was so cold it was outside the operating range of the charger.
The shop warmed up enough to charge the batteries yesterday,...
...and ordered a second.
A well-made tool; anything that increases shop safety is worth learning to use.
Fellow woodbutchers,
In the last two weeks I've had three different occasions demanding drilling or driving screws in close quarters--next to a stovepipe, inside a fixed-shelf cabinet, and under...
Larry,
For years, my only grinder was equipped with a hardwood stick bolted (across the width of the machine) to the two cheap, bendy tool rests that came with the grinder. The structure is...
Have a variety to fit my 20" Agazzani and think they're great.
Bob,
I really enjoy your tutorials. I've rehabbed chisels and chopped mortises for years, but I can always learn something from a thoughtful and experienced teacher.
Keep 'em coming...

Steve,
I sure hope the LDD treatment holds up-those are beautiful bowls!
John
Mike,
I've had the Jointech Smartmiter for about a year now and use it quite a bit. The fence is solid, and the angle geometry is clever--you don't have to re-zero when changing angles. There's...
Dave,
Like you, I just drape them unfolded--in my case, usually over the edge of my shop's trashcan--until they're hard and dry, then stick 'em in the pile to go to the dump--ah, sorry, the...
Rob Lee has posted a couple of links on the Wreck showing the not-yet-available spokeshaves from Lee Valley--

Mark, following up on the above--
I have the Biesemeyer spreader on my PM66 and like it. One thing I did have to give up on was using the Brett guard--some folks do use both together, but only...
I've had the Bies splitter on my PM66 for about a year now and never take it off unless necessary (e.g., for dadoing).
At the time I did my pre-buy research, the Bies was the only decent splitter...
...have you guys ever tried the old Yankee-type telescoping screwdriver? No noise, no battery changes...
Oh, yeah, sorry, wrong forum.
On this side of the fence I have an old 9.6V Makita...
..I've been off the computer for a day.
I use the same stones as Steve, though for me the 320 seems plenty coarse for initial flattening of backs.
The lapping plate is one I've had for...
Bob,
I've done the whole gamut--oil stones, diamond, ceramic, Scary Sharp, waterstones--and the Shapton stones are a favorite by a long shot. Lapping chisel and plane blade backs goes quickly...
