Glad to hear Ian is alive and well and you spoke to him John. He has such a wealth of knowledge and is an excellent teacher. I have 2 of his books.

I like it Bill, white oak? Japanese gauges frequently use white oak. Nice long fence for good registration, yet thin enough ? 5/8 ? 3/4 so you do not have to deal with interference from work table...
I really enjoyed his Dovetail book. I talked to him about 20 years ago and he was very cordial. I have not seen anything lately on him.
I agree with the above comments, spokeshaves work best on narrower stock. The shave has less mass, and that translates into more chatter. However, I have used spokeshaves on curves wider than 2...
I enjoyed the song and video Julie.
Augusto, well done! Yes, it is just the camera angle that makes the overhang appear greater than it is. And I find it a pain to get the bottom dovetail to cover the groove on the front of the...
Outstanding, welcoming door David.
Practical project, I'm sure it will get plenty of use.
Once you get some practice perhaps you can resaw some 1/8 inch veneer - that would be a lofty goal! Keep us posted.
Glenn, do they still make a 1/2 Resaw King? I have not see that available. Did they stop making them?
I like the exposed joinery!
My rebuilt Rikon 10-326 roller bearings seized up rather quickly. You guys were right. It is just is a temporary fix. I bought some new ones. The lower bearings do collect a lot of wood dust,...
Nice, convenient and practical
I think the Rikon 10-326 can handle a 3/4 inch blade, but I think it should be thin. I did resaw with a Lenox 2TPI 3/4 inch blade but it was .032 inches and it got the job done but it was sort of...
Thanks for the good information! I will focus on the fence alignment.
I have been trying to start my feed really slow, I will look at your other suggestions.

My guide post holding my roller bearings seems a little to the right of the blade axis - but...
Thanks Andy, I will keep trying.
Perhaps Doug. But I have seen on occasion a resaw expert say get your roller bearings as close to the blade as possible, so that when turning the wheel manually they occasionally kiss the blade. I...
This is a real concern Brian. Although Laguna markets the blade for a 14inch bandsaw. And Van Huskey has recommended this blade for a steel spine 14inch bandsaw blade and I have seen some members...
Got a 3/4 inch Resaw King for my Rikon 10-326. Was cutting a lot of 1/8 inch laminations. Lenox 1/2 inch 3TPI was getting the job done, but wanted to try out Resaw King. Cranked up tension to max...
The Lie Nielsen Boggs curved would be my choice. Solid feel, smooth cuts. The curved can do what the flat bottom shave can do and also inside ( concave ) surfaces. I have a Veritas flat shave and...
Nice box Mike - you did a good job with those hinge mortises - always a challenge.
Very sad Lee. Unfortunately poor service is becoming more common.
