    I like Jamie's idea of dados over half laps here. Half laps in this case can also lead to some short grain on the end of the stretcher/spreader that extends beyond the leg, making it susceptible to...

    Clamping a fence sounds to fussy to me, too. You can get really nice baselines with the method Derek details on his site by deepening the baselines, taking a chip out of the waste side, and making a...

    Are the gaps the same on both faces? Sometimes that can help chase down slightly out-of-square spots if the joint is slightly open on one face but closed on the other side. If you think it's an issue...

    +1. Josh's tools and prices are much more in the user category. Great service and everything I've gotten from him has been excellent.

    I'd go ahead and put the battens on - might as well while you're in the middle of the build. Also, once pine settles down it remains more stable (i.e. moves less) than hardwood over time. So, you'd...

    My mind went to kitchen cabinets too. When I remodeled our kitchen, I think I took 8-10 screws total out of the upper bank of plywood oak cabinets that were holding hundreds of pounds of dishes....

    I have an old 78 (pre 1909) that had a worn down clover knicker. I bought a (vintage) replacement, no idea what it came off of. It was a very tight fit, a couple of swipes with a small file made it...
  12. Millers Falls 17 low angle block plane

    Millers Falls 17 low angle block plane for sale. I bought this several years ago on a whim and have only used it a couple of times - it's just too big for my hands. It's a relatively large block...

    A data point of one here, but for the most part the vintage bits I've come across are more of a pain than they're worth. Like Jason mentioned, it's sometimes hard to tell if the lead screw or flutes...

    I'll just add that I started out with and only had a curved bottom shave for a long time. It does have a learning curve, but I didn't think it was too bad. Maybe a couple of sessions messing around...

    I have a type 9 #3 that just has such a nice balance and weight, like an extension of my hand. Happy every time I get to pick that one up.

    Doug, I'd love to see an overview of your tool collection over in the Neander forum sometime. You've been the most prolific hand tool buyer on here for years and usually scoop most everything within...

    Sounds like you're on the right track Joel. A router plane can alter the depth of dados, and a side rabbet plane can alter the width (you can also do this with a chisel and knife line). For fine...

    Good advice here. I'll add that I wouldn't think about the number of planes. It's not whether you have 3 or 7 or 14 or 700, it's if you have what you need to do what you want (and if that's collect,...

    An interesting thing I've heard but never tried for sizing (priming) end grain with hide glue is that because new hide glue will bond to old hide glue, you can size the end grain with a thin coat and...

    I’m assuming James is less worried about repairability and more about the thing failing while someone’s standing on it.
