Mel,

I don’t knowmhow that went right over my head. I was in the shop of my employer today and I think the heat was melting my brain.

Whomever thinks they are going to repurpose the plane rack in 100 years is gonna have to tend to a million screw holes form the brass screws I’ll be using to attach all the ebony cleats.

In all reality I think the rack will sit as it for probably a number of years to come while I acquire the rest of the LN planes I want. I don’t want to start putting cleats up before I can lay everything out the last square inch.

It is kinda shame to cover up all that beautiful wood with planes but I promise I have plans to leave the best figure exposed. And with the ebony cleats and beautiful LN planes it should be as beautiful to look at then as it is now?
