    If you want to glue anything, I believe your approach of gluing the center of the panel is the right one. It's similar to breadboard edge construction; fix the center and let the outer edges...

    We went around and around on this another time and I agree with exactly what John posted in italics, no vapor barrier in hot, damp climates. I was arguing to another fellow Georgian, however, where...

    I'll start by saying that I cant answer your question. BUT whether you know it or not, you've started a sharpening thread! That means we all get to weigh in! Like most of them, it will probably go...

    Given the parameters, my recommendation would be to use a 1/2" or even 5/8" (depending on how heavily you really plan to load them) plywood bottom that rides on top of your rail "A" in your picture. ...

    Beautiful work!
    Your timing is great too... I've just been commissioned for a bed project for my teenage son. That design is pretty much spot on!
    I'll give proper credit!

    nice work, Bob!
    I built one very similar recently but my top has started to cup. UGH!
    I think it's beyond reasonable repair so I am rethinking options for the remake... I hadn't considered a "rail...

    You're a couple more weeks in now, so you may have already skinned it, but if you are really adverse to routing the profile, the good news is that what you have could be achieved by applying 1/4...

    I love that idea... I have enough damaged block planes and parts that I will likely give this a shot.

    String lines are always straight and you can't "flex" the board to them like you can to a bench or a straight edge. I would get an extra set of hands and start stringing end to end, corner to...

    It does have a frog adjustment. Everything I think points to a 16 except the lever cap is wrong and the casting is the older style (which as I read closer was not uncommon for early type 16s).

  17. Frankenplane?

    Since this is a type study of No 7s, no point in a new thread. Anyone have an idea of this one? Looks like a 16 with a replacement lever cap? Agree / disagree? I know it made short work of sizing a...
