Why remove the pad? I think you could pein it in place while rotating the pad.
Cody, that is amazing work. I have no idea how you recast the rings so nicely.

One more vote for the LV. I am sure that the LN plane would be nice. get the medium. you are just cleaning the tenon.
Rich, you mention large honeysuckle! Are these bush honeysuckle? If so they are a worthy adversary. Tough wood! The husky you have should do fine for the larger trees. Depending on the trees you will...
A back-flow preventer is available but I wonder why it is needed. The trap is a possible problem because it is a spot where friction will retard the flow. Traps must be plumbed with, "street elbows"...
line and berry tools.
Don't buy an 1/8 chisel but make one by grinding the lower edges of a 1/4" chisel. you will have much greater control of the chisel because of the wider portion above the working portion of the...
Welcome aboard! There are a lot of knowledgeable folks on this site. I have learned to do a search for subjects addressed in the past on this site. Just put the topic in the search bar at the upper...
The LV bevel up smoother is the best and it is so simple to set. Get the PMV steel blade if you can. I bought the new steel blade in a 27 degree and redid the angle to 50 degrees. Just amazing...
It is a North woods axe I believe. You got a bargain.
What Charles said!
Nice, well proportioned piece. I like it.

Max,
What Kubota do you have? I found the Kubota diesel very reliable in an older bobcat. I have a 2009 kubota M108X 96 pto hp. I love that thing. I was considering an L38 to mow along my woods...
I forgot to mention that the #65 has a feature that locks the head very firmly so that there is no rocking or wiggle once the gauge is tightened.
A few weeks ago there was a thread about favorite cutting gauges. Many opted for the wheel gauge. I made a comment about the Stanley #65 but most ignored that or called it a pin gauge. I decided to...
The trouble with learning from this website is that there is so much information. A lot of it is good. It is difficult or impossible to focus on all of the info. This thread is one of the ones we...
I vote for Poplar as well. It is fun to work. Reasonable cost. It can be beautiful as well. My nephew has a Poplar cabinet that is 1800's and it has a beautiful bronze hue to it.
I can relate to...
Well I think that I will wait it out. I do have that 607 running very sweet. Maybe I will decide I don't need the upgrade. The back order date of Sept. 21 and the next free shipping will likely...
Diesels can burn very clean at a constant rpm such as a farm tractor. The way to use a diesel in an automobile would be as the power plant for a hybrid. In that application they would be much cleaner.
we have had the LG steam washer for 7 or 8 years. We love it. No repairs to date. The design with no transmission makes these units very long lasting and energy efficient. if you leave the door of...
Will Metal on metal work OK? I am just asking.
good information David and Dan. Since my item is back ordered until Sept. 21 I may as well wait. I have that plane working very sweet now. I just was so impress when I used the PMV-11 in my bevel-up...
Oh I will never wear it out. I am sad now cause I just realized that Rob Lee has got us. I think gleaning comments from this thread could be the basis of, "Tool Fanatics Syndrome" textbook. Jim...
Is there a pattern to Lee Valley free shipping? I wanted to get a PMV-11 blade and chip breaker for my #607, but they are back ordered until 9-21. I thought about waiting until there was another free...
I have a Tormek that I bought at a garage sale, a six-inch Baldor, and a buffer. I use all three and the more I dry grind the better I get at it. I still prefer the Tormek for applications where I...
