Thanks to all of you Galoots out there, I have acquired more hand tools over the last year than I have storage for. Decided I needed a wall hung cabinet. I have been learning how to use them by playing with a lot of scrap, but decided it would be fitiing if I tried this with as much hand tool work as possible.
I've spent the better part of the weekend working on this. Had hoped to start cutting the thru DT today but am still working on getting all three boards to a uniform thickness. One started off with a 3/16 bow, so ended up at about 3/4 thick, so have to "thin" the other two.
I had never used a scrub before. Was too timid to start really aggressively hogging off wood, but found that is what I need to do. This thing works great! Also found out that winding sticks are much more accurate than I had ever thought. Although I had made them some time back, I had never used them on a project.
Am making my first shooting board now.
Not sure haw this will all turn out, but I am sure learning a lot in the process, as well as getting an aerobic workout!
