SWAG V4.0 Portaband Table - black powder coated table with zinc plated legs ...
A couple blog entries I remembered:

Dovetailed Chest in Birdseye...
Apparently works pretty well for removing old finishes from old gunstocks from what I've read online, it just happens to also really make the grease/oil want to come off too.
Michael, I'm in the middle of rebuilding my first metal lathe atm and ran across something called Citristrip at Home Depot. It really has done a fine job, easy to use, and non-toxic. Just brush it...
Jay, Wood Magazine had one along the lines of your design:

Hollow-grind Sharpening and Jig Woodworking Plan from Wood magazine - cost for the...
I've soled a few planes with Verawood, but not planed like you are doing. Vera just loves to be milled with a router, make the shop smell like lemon spice. What I did was to leave the sides long on...
Dittos what Bill said above about simply using a hand lens to quickly check and move on... but for fun, a couple of my first pics taken using the following... 1,2,3:
Make a USB microscope article:...
How about a video...

I haven't ordered mine yet, but the one in the video has some pretty good ideas.
Bet you could find a way to make one of these work... :)
Looks interesting

What to do with flawed planes
You could re-purpose the sole of a block plane with embedded diamond paste... then cobble the rest of the parts together to make one-heck-of-a "Lansky" style...
Jamie, pardon the poor SketchUp pic but I've had pretty good results with something made in the shop:

Angle your tool rest to the angle you want then rotate...
Down with the iron/chisel edge facing up... keeps the tip cooler. Good point/practice from Steven Newman... if it's too hot to touch, you don't want to keep at. Better to dip/cool the metal before...
Another pretty good option: Ceramic Glass Liner for flat platen, usage instructions on that page. You should be able to find Pyroceram (fireplace insert glass) at your local glass shop or fireplace...
Congrats, you're going to enjoy it! Sounds like you have your strategy right... use the belt(s) for rough shaping/grinding, then on to honing. If you want a belt that lasts a pretty long time, stay...
+100 for more pics with accompanying info! That is one knarly-knurl on that puppy... :) We wanna see shavings!!!
Jim Koepke was the one I heard it from... definitely a keeper!
Another option you might consider: TableSawTom. Never used his service before but have read many that have were very happy with the results.
Funny, just ordered a belt from usaknifemaker this week... saw this just now:

I've ordered from here a few times, quick shipping... I'm happy with their service. Also have ordered a couple times from HandAmerican for the fine diamond spray, .25 and 1 micron. Looks like...
I know it wasn't all wood but... sure would have/still would love to have a "Loopy" :D
Jim, hope you're able to email or something to get your login info back this time. Next time though... backup that stuff to a little usb pen drive using something like one of these:

Tony, don't laugh... but I've been pretty happy with a cheapie Angled Eye LED Desk Lamp that I picked up one day at my local Target store. It offers a direct easy to point task light which won't even...
