Hi,

I'm working wood more the neanderthal way as of today. So I'm currently buying wood already planed and thicknessed or I prepare it with handplanes, which is a lot of work.

I'm thinking...

Hi Stewie,

Nice work. But why do you need a skewed float for ?
I thought they were only useful for skewed irons planes. Which is not the case on regular HR moulding planes.

Hi,

5 notes to help make a choice (from my brain dump this morning :) ).
1- Remember that the length of hand saw can range from 24 - 26 - to 28 ". So you want to make sure that the height you'll...

Hi,

Oh boy I'm dreaming for this plane since so long. I can't wait for this plane to release....
Will be hard :)

Hi jerry,

I have the Iron body LN #4 and really like it. I don't find weight is an issue. For long sessions it's confortable.

To help you take a decision, I bought mine used too and paid...

Hi,

Nice review by Dereck, as usual.

I'm wondering about these new custom bench planes, in fact a bout 2 points, and would like to get some feedback :

Do you have to remove the blade carrier...

Hi Malcom,

Great thread. I have a question about the 400 stone, if I may ask. What do you use then to flatten it since it's on the larger grit side already ? Diamond stone, sand paper ?
I have...

Hi,

I have a question about the way to manage back bevel wear for Bevel Up planes. The question is not about bevel up vs bevel down (I'm not starting this kind of debate ;) ). My question is for...

Hi,

Thank you for the answers. Yes I did a search, but did not come across threads for the professional stones. I also think from what I read elsewhere, that globally they're the same that the...

Hi,

I currently own a chosera 1000. I'm happy with the stone, and wanted to upgrade my finer stones with the same kind (3000 or 5000). FOr this I currently own a King 4000, but it need soaking and...

Hi,

To be honest and give a straight answer. Both types of planes can achieve great results. But there are differences that can be either pros or cons. And one question for which I don't have the...

:D Arghhh LOL. In fact it's a very good one, I got trapped on this one as when I read your reply I was in a 'serious mode', not thinking about that.
Excellent.

But you know and I'm serious LV is...

Hi Hilton,

In fact yes any marking gauge can work with both measurement systems for mortices and for many othe things, because you set them to the size of the tool, and/or to ratios.
To be honest...

Hi,

I'm really interested in the mortice chisels. I was hopping they would come out at one moment.

But as with the chisels, I'm begging for a metric version .... Please rob release them both in...

Hi Jared.
I had the same problem. I got mine from St James Tool Bay. I got it from on ebay from him.
It just works fine. His name on ebay is st.jamesbaytoolco .

I hope this helps.

Hi Rob


Thank you for your answer.
If I may a Dovetail Plane would be awesome.
After all we can also try our chance ....


Regards.

Hi Rob,

Sounds very cool. One question. Do you plan to make a bigger plow plane one day ? Or maybe add some nickers on the plane for cross grain planing ?
Probably new holes in our wallets on the...

David, I particularly like this sample. It's really true.

Regards.

Hi.

I understand Bob was talking about placing the value added effort on the right places. And giving his opinion about the sanding job or how to optimising the job done.
But I join Jim, Rick and...

Bonjour Noel,


Just to let you know that I think, this can be translated by 'stress relieved'. Other creekers might confirm.

Hello.
+1 With Larry.

I own two of theses rasps and they're very good.
What is impressive is that even with a fine stitching (I have a 250 mm rasp with stich #9) the amount of material removed...

Hi creekers,

I Have to comment/moderate my previous posts.

I finally got in touch with St James Tool Bay Co. Teh fact is that if you use the mail that is the contact for the web site, you don't...

Hi all.

Well I was not aware of that, never read it anwyhere. Although he did answer me, he should have told it to me.
I would have called.

Maybe I'll try this way to get my parts :p

Thanks.

Hi,

I've tried for 2 years to get some parts that they're selling. Got many times contact over mail. It seemed every time that the order was processing, and finally never got anything. Even at the...
