Can someone point me in the right direction for Bob's tutorial? I'm sure that I have read it at some point in the past, but now I can't find it. :mad:
I've search and there without success. Thanks a...

Hi Mark, A fellow poster pointed me to this site for knobs & totes : http://www.drozsoldetymestanleytotesandknobs.com/saleitems.htm.
I haven't tried them as yet, but they do look very nice. As to...

Is this a reasonable price?

David, looks like you're gonna have some fun cleaning that little lot over the next few weeks. Would be interesting to see the final results.

I've read other posts about Ed's Medallion saws. Is there a link, or other form of contact?

".........PAX is NOT AN OPTION"

David, just out of curiosity. What is it that you don't like about PAX? I have a PAX backsaw, but I don't have the experience to know the "niceties" of one make vs...

I guess that one has to wonder who is actually bidding on this "plane!!!!!
Do they intend to use it, or maybe they're short of a doorstop??????

As I understood it, when I first read about the ramped board, it is very similar to angling the plane (at 45 degrees, or so) when planing with the grain. The action of the plane tends to shear the...

What you do with your disposable is entirely up to you, it's none of my business.
Unfortunately, I don't have oodles of cash to spend on the tools I want/need, and so I have to get what I can, when...

So, if you didn't want this one, why bid on it? Didn't you know what you were bidding on? Why not wait for the one that you DO want?

It may be true that your "practice" encourages good tools to be...

One has to wonder why you guys bid on something you don't want/need? There are other guys who might want/need something that you have "pushed" the price on, and therefore they drop out. IMO this sort...

Harry, that's a neat little glue-pot. Are they available as is, or have you adapted something else?

Hi Thomas. I think that you should be proud of yourself. Whether you goofed, or not, is secondary to whether your vise actually works. the other point is that you had FUN! Hopefully this will inspire...

Thanks Jonathon. The problem I've encountered, so far, is that shoulder planes seem hard to come by at an affordable (for me) price.

I'm hoping to acquire one of these in the near future, probably used, from the auction site. As I haven't had one of these before I did some research on Blood & Gore. Patrick's closing statement is...

Dan, enjoy England while you have the opportunity. I made the westward trip from there 5 years ago. In case you are not aware (but I'm sure you are), you wouldn't be able to use your own tails there,...

Not wanting to hijack this thread, but can anyone suggest a source for replacement blades for a Stanley #40 (scrub plane)?

I have recently acquired a used mortise chisel (my first), which requires some honing to bring it to the point where I am comfortable in using it. While I have been able to master the skill in...
