I really like this! Thanks for sharing...
With all the comments on A2 not getting as sharp, let me ask... Has anyone not been able to do a specific job with A2 where you couldn't get your tool sharp enough to make you wish you had O1?...
I think you inadvertantly hit upon your issues with skewing and the MK2... You really do not need to press down at all. In my experience with using that jig, things worked a huge amount better with...
This is pretty much the exact situation I experienced! I knew I wanted to learn neander ways. I reseached and bought neander tools. I scoured the internet and made a bit of headway, but then taking a...
A butt chisels is absolutely made for striking. The LV PMV11 will take a serious beating on and beg for more! The thing is they are really sweet and beautiful tools and some people just can't bring...
I too use and love the Veritas black canvas apron. 2 years now and no quality issues...
Also, consider that sometimes you may be getting a newer employee who is not quite as well versed yet and is confusing policy with, say, a consumer damaged tool or the like as opposed to a defect...
Quite likely resharpened a few times... nice find!
Thanks for the info guys! I will look for those videos for sure...
Hey all!
Lately I have been becoming more interested in wooden planes and learning how to use them, but other than H&R's I haven't bit on buying any yet. Well I found this guy for sale for $15.00...
My vote is for simply making it flat enough to work with and work with it, warts and all... It is a tool and unless you are collecting, and I can't imagine collecting work benches (lol! That would be...
My father was like that... Was an incedible mechanic who worked hard and long hours and would work for two or three days in the same pair of jeans and white t-shirt and never get dirty and his 3 bay...
Pedro haha! I think we had the same thought at the same time...
Can the way way the metal recipes are mixed have a roll is how the final product behaves? Even if the quantities of ingredients are identical from one makers A2 mixture to anothers, but they way they...
Now you are going to be waiting on the edge of your seat for the opportunity to throw a "you suck!" back at someone else! Haha! You wait and see...
This guy too... Other than that it is a good tool...
That is really cool! I like stories like this...
I am going to plug my nose and jump in the deep end...
Speaking for myself, a lot of the reason I lurk and don't post very much isn't because I am intimidated by skilled peoples knowledge. It is...
This in spades...
I can't believe you are getting the grief you are from this thread... :confused:
Like Winston, I collect pocket knives, and some of the are just as valuable as these planes. I would not dream of...
Meh... I would rather have a scratched up premium tool that gets used over a pretty premium model that sits on a shelf. Of course though, the first mark stings just a little but after that, move on...
I just plain like nice things, and I am far from being considered well off. I would love to drive a Ferrari but I could never even remotely dream of affording one so I drive a basic regular cab base...
With the LV jig, I used to do the same thing. I figured it out better as time went on to the point where I only snug it slightly and I can still move the blade in the jig if I try. The thing with...
My No.3 came in paper with no bag a couple years ago...
