Sold to Jim!! Thanks.
Lot of lookers…..how about $40 shipped?
Some of us have a tendency to accumulate tools. I know the affliction is rare, but I find myself with tools that are duplicative, or buried away in a drawer. and aren't getting used much. This...
It has been years since I used Kaspersky, but can you log the URL as a safe site?
Sold, but not to Lance. He was scooped by another creeker!
I have used a set of 4 Narex chisels for a few years, and about a year or so ago I bought a new set of 6 unhandled Narex for which I made handles. The Narex steel is very good.
A couple of the...
I have used NRS for years and prefer a more shallow and longer/deeper top angle. The important thing is to sharpen only the underside angle so that a burr gets raised on the upside. The more shallow...
DIETER SCHMID WERKZEUGE GMBH in Germany. They do business as fine-tools.com. Here is a link to the fishtails - https://www.fine-tools.com/fishtail-paring-chisel.html. There is a 50 Euro minimum to...
Rob, tracking says my MHG fishtails will arrive next Thursday. I will let you know my assessment. But, three MHG shipped cost what one LN would shipped.
Jeff, I did notice that, but I don’t care for socket chisels. We experience a wide range of humidity during the year and I would really hate for one to drop off the handle on to my concrete floor!! ...
Looking for decent fishtail chisels. Any size up to 5/8”.
They are the same.
I have dyed epoxy many times and used universal tint used by paint stores to mix paint. Stop by your local paint store with a small condiment container and ask for a couple drops.
Brian, I am going to take a risky position here and openly disagree with your wife. I like the piece. It has good form, nice curves and I love the contrast of the two woods as well as the shape of...
Sold to Lance!
These have been hanging around for awhile and I got in a clean up mode. Shipped to you for $25. Payment via Zelle.
Though I no longer do artistic turnings, I sold my work in galleries for over 10 years. I was cautioned early on to not date my work. A prospective buyer might conclude that an “older” piece had not...
I installed one of these on the end of my bench. Easy install and unobtrusive. Well designed for the intended use and with Veritas quality.
Clark, you should give it a try! It is like other woodworking - one cut at a time. Curtis Buchanan has a YouTube channel with a couple of chair builds start to finish. Well worth watching!
Thanks so much to all have taken the time to comment. I appreciate the kind words.
Thanks to all that have commented and to all that have viewed I would encourage you to build a chair! Not only does it improve your spindle turning skills, it hones so many basic woodworking skills.
John, I am not sure what you want close up shots of, but here are a couple of pics I took along the way. If you want others let me know.
And, thanks John, Steve and Dan for the kind words!!
I have chronicled the build of 8 dining side chairs on my FB page, but for those that don't do FB, the chairs are now done! These are a modification and enlargement on the Curtis Buchanan plan for...
Plane is sold!!
These are getting more scarce by the day. This one is in very good shape. The blade is sharp, but would benefit by a touch up. It has the old style chip breaker, a feature many like, and an...
