Sorry. Didn't mean to post it twice. Still not that good with computers. Ralph
It's all very impressive until you realize they're regular size tools, and Ralph is just an enormous man. :P
No, that's really neat stuff, Ralph! Thanks for sharing - I really like seeing your methods in the posts here as well. My wife and I have been watching a few of your Youtube videos here, and we're mesmerized!
I don't think I can complain about sharpening dovetail saws or working on fretboard inlay anymore!
Plane ear rings - My wife especially likes these. Thanks Joshua & wife; I'll post some other pics and videos. Ralph

Very cool tools Ralph! Nice designs, lines and details.

Ralph,
Your work is amazing! So is your wife for wearing plane earings. Have you made any full size tools?
Seriously great work, and the most amazing thing is that they all seem to work. That is so cool. Thanks for showing us.
Thanks Jack. Yes, they all work; that's part of my trademark. Saw a cute little plane on the net and just had to have one. Ralph

Thanks Don. I appreciate your thoughts. Ralph
Thanks Gary. Yes, my wife just loves the plane earrings. Now she wants a pair in silver - oh well. No, I haven't built any full scale tools, but maybe I can still grow into it. I like 1/4 scale, but the earrings are 1/16. Now 1/4 seems big. Ralph
