Dear Creekers,
My mentor is finally retiring after 53 years of dentistry.
His wife and COVID troubles (staff drama, loads of PPE, multi month shutdown, etc) have finally convinced him to sleep in for the first time in 73 years.
For the past 9 years, he's been like a good uncle to me.
9 years ago, he's mentioned about building a rowboat after retirement.
I've bought him a boat building book as a surprise Christmas present.
I'd like to get him a truly special block plane.
Any recommendations?
