Rich, Wow! Good for you. I don't know your age but if you where that much overweight you certainly would have had a health scare sooner or later. I really don't need to loose much more weight. Maybe...

I have a real problem ordering clothing over the internet. I'm a hands on kind of guy. I did find some nice shirts today at our local Rural King store. Carhartt brand. Never thought I'd spend that...

Thanks for all the responses guys. Going shopping today.

Don't think so Wade. That trip scared me pretty bad.

John, the health scare is over. Early July I went to the emergency room thinking I was having another heart attack. I've had 5 of them, turned out to be something they called gerd. What really scared...

Due to a pretty bad health scare earlier this year I've lost quite a bit of weight. I need to buy basically a whole new wardrobe. My question concerns flannel shirts. I refuse to buy the cheap ones...

It's been several years since posting anything. Health issues, other interests, and just life in general. The past few days I've been looking at the first 300 pages or so of threads. Something I've...

I've been signed up for the hand tool videos since the first one. I find them very informative and really look forward to them. Bob

I use a different method. I like to use diamond paste from Lee Valley. I do like a sparkley smile :D.

Well mine do come out but no. I don't take em out for anything!:)

This thread has been a very good read for me. Here's my story. I used to build drag racing engines. When you take an engine design originally made to run 4,000 to 5,000 R.P.M.'s and build it to turn...

Thanks Jim. Now I understand.
Bob

Jim I understand what your doing with the tenoned piece but I don't understand what your doing with a lap joint?
Bob

Depends on what size M/T your working with. I find I use a small router plane more often than not. Mine is an old Stanley but if I were to buy a new small one, it would definately be the LN version....

I have a Woodriver #3 and a #6. Both V3 and both can be set up at the very edge of the iron. I also have a Stanley #4, #5, #5 1/2, a Union #7, and a Montgomery Wards #8 all of them can be set up this...

Paul that's a great plane. I have one and wouldn't give it up. Do yourself a favor and get the "hotdog" atachment for it if you plan to use it on a shooting board. It is very comfortable to use and...

Clark you have some really nice pieces in your gallery. I'm impressed.
Merry Christmas

Those chisels appear to have a LOT more miles on them than mine ever will!
Bob

Mr. Strasil,
Thanks soo much for responding. I have been useing the holdfasts you made for me and had been wondering what happened. I think I can speek for all of us here when I say we really miss...

Funny you brought this up. I did the exact same thing yesterday. I spent about 2 solid hours honeing and oiling blades and chisels and cleaning plane bodies and waxing them. I spent the money for...

I haven't seen any activity from Mr. Strasil in quite some time. Is he OK, did I miss something?
Thanks
Bob Warfield

Jim, Merry Christmas early! I'd love to be able to go to one of his workshops. For now I'm learning a lot watching his online school.
Happy Holidays

I thought I may as well chime in too. I saw the video too and wondered why would he do this. I guess we all know he was working on a new Woodriver plane. I have a couple of them, a #3 and a #6. I'm...

Thanks again Chris. That joint is on my short list of things to try.
Happy Holidays
Bob

Thanks Chris.
