I'm very very happy with my Veritas carcass saws
Another vote for Paul Sellers. I've been a member of his woodworking master classes for a few years and it's been the best woodworking $ I've spent.
Garrett Wade often has 15% off sales and has some Lie Nielsen products.
Garrett Wade (http://www.garrettwade.com) often runs sales where you can get 15% off and sometimes free shipping. They have some Lie Nielsen tools so this might be as close as you get. I bought a...
I'd strongly suggest getting a flat bottom spoke shave if this is your first one. They are very versatile tools that are a joy to use. I use my flat bottom spoke shave far more than my round bottom...
I have been a subscriber to Paul Seller's Woodworking Masterclasses for about a year or so. I think his online courses are FANTASTIC! I have learned so much from Paul and I would highly recommend...
I've been using this cheap little mallet from HF and so far have been very happy with it.

At one time I used the cheap acid brushes from HF. I soon got tired of picking the bristles out of glue because they always seemed come out. I now have some of the silicone glue brushes from...
Success! A little judicious filing did the trick. I had to extent the slot the knob goes through a bit, a little more work on the slotted cam to widen the opening some (otherwise it would cause the...
Thanks Jim. I was just thinking the same thing. I'll give that a try this evening. I now have more of an appreciation for what a great job Veritas did improving an already great tool. Although...
I actually had to file the opening of my slotted cam adjuster a bit to keep it from moving the toe piece forward a bit when tightening the knob. But if I remove the cam adjuster and knob completely...
282337Here is a pic of the mouth with the blade set for a minimum cut. The opening between the blade and the toe is ~ 1/16''. The only thing limiting the movement of the toe is the slot on the top...
I have two low angle block planes. One is a MF 56 that I recently acquired and the other is a Veritas (love both of them). On my Veritas if the blade is retracted all the way I can move the toe far...
Right now it is a spoke shave. My 6 year old son loves to use it and the big smile it puts on his face puts a big smile on my face. I also take pleasure in thinking that one day he will be able to...
Just a FYI, Garrett Wade sells old English wooden plow planes - just an alternative to ebay

I haven't bought one from them...
I'll add a review as well. I got a 100 grit diamond disk in hopes that it would be good for initial grinding or for removing nicks, etc. It works great! I use it mostly through the bottom...
Has anyone tried one of the 3-in-1 Indian made shoulder planes sold by Garrett Wade (maybe by others too)? Looks interesting if the quality is good. The video shows having to do some tuning but...
Ditto what Greg said
Very cool. The laser engraving is a very nice touch.
Harold,
Try clicking on the Amazon link above. I just tried it and I see all those grits offered.
If you want a small router plane consider the LV miniture

great blade adjustment mechanism and a depth stop. A serious small...
Lee Valley use to have a pdf of a cad drawing of their dovetail saw handle on their web site that you could download. Not sure if it is still there but I have a copy I could send you if you're...
Update - I went to order from the lapidarytool.com site and shipping for two discs was ~ $25 so its not a good deal compared to the ebay or amazon sources
FYI, in looking around I found you can also find these disks on Amazon for around the same price
