Stew,

Gee, now I feel guilty. I'll have to buy that T-Square I've looked at so many times.

Woodpeckers had a special on phenolic 6” clamping squares and I ordered 2. However, when I received the squares they had some problems. The outer faces had “ripples” that looked similar to planer...

I agree with John, I've had the same problem and it is hard to believe the blade is square in the jig. I use sand paper and have had to switch to a coarse grit (80 or 100) to square the blade. After...

Buying on bay can be risky as mentioned, the descriptions are often bizarre and obviously not written by a woodworker. Of the 3 internet plane purchases I have made 2 were from Sandy Moss and 1 from...

Jim,
After reading your post, I checked the type study guide at rexmill.com and found the following:

TYPE #9 (1902-1907) - ..."Frog receiver undergoes a major redesign. (This is the frog that is...

Greg,

I suspected the frog quality would not the same as the original. The bench plane screw kit would be handy to have.

I have a hold on "impulse purchases", well most of the time anyway - I...

Thanks Jonathan,
I see Stanley also has parts for my #59 dowel jig, #80 scraper and a fence I need for my Dad's old #78 plane.

Thanks again, Larry

I searched SMC for this topic - no hits.

Highland Woodworking sells plane repair kits. Look under Hand Plane Repair Parts.

For example, Pt.#171905 is described as: 2” bench plane frog kit...

Nice job Bryan, clear instructions and good pictures. Problem solving - that is what WW is all about.

Jim,

I've have a Triton installed in a table and it has the same "scary" start you describe. Seems to be a common problem and has been posted on WW forums several times in the past. The router...

Greg, quotes below are not a direct answer to your question, but describes woodworking as a hobby for me. Did I pick woodworking as a hobby? I can't answer that question, but for me it has a lot to...

Chris, my comments:

1. Guilty of this - I put an X over the the incorrect line.

2. Guilty of this - Mark scrap pieces clearly with an X. Use arrow head to mark kerf side.

Jim, I recently bought a #80 on ebay for $15.50 - I was the only bidder.

I checked the TPI, I think it is a number 27 - see picture.

Sounds familiar, or at least similar to this thread.

Dennis,

I'm also a "hobbiest" woodworker, and have been so for many years, but I have never owned a bandsaw. At about 11:00 PM last night, after a lot of "should I / no I shouldn't" debate, I...

Epoxy, I'll try that - amazing how much upward pressure a hold down can exert. Machine screws with a washer and nut below the bench help, but whatever made me think those little wood screws would...

Drool on WW catalogs at first, and then take Peter and Mike's advise.
