You may well have the "wrong" chipbreaker -- at least (2) versions of the Stanley stamped-steel chipbreaker exist. Each has a different "fork hole"-to-"threaded hole" distance.
What is the...
Derek,
Your forethought is as inspiring as your execution.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
google: "branding iron for woodworkers" -- they're available all over the place. I've got at least five different ones from multiple sources.
After Tom, brought this to our attention, I ordered one of the coarse SiC stones from Sharpening Supplies (the link is back up in Tom's post #9)
I recently gave it a go, and it is everything I'd...
Yes, if you mean Central and South American.
I'll admit that it wasn't my first thought, but since it's been brought up, I too, think you're an excellent candidate for a Japanese Ryoba saw.
You've made it clear that you're primarily a power...
"1 Kinsey" is a street address.
Mike,
Your work never fails to impress!
This is a fine showcase* for multiple skills.
I especially like the rosewood handles.

Thanks for that -- I didn't know that one existed -- I too, just ordered one.
It appears you're under the impression that the stones being discussed are diamond plates -- they are not. Both the Crystolon and the one Tom ordered use Silicon Carbide.
Since you asked about a stone ...
I will second the advice re: the Norton Crystolon stone.

The lower edge of the spine absolutely rides on the bearings in my 1936 MF 73A every time I use the depth stops.
Start the cut on a corner, while visually ensuring that the saw is aligned with the cut line on both adjacent faces.
Ball bearing saw guides first appear on the Langdon/Acme boxes in 1938.
I have a few of these, and they have a top ball bearing, which rides on the top edge of the saw spine, as well as two lower...
Mike,
An outstanding presentation of an impressive undertaking.
The execution of the molding and panel raising are particularly noteworthy.
Thanks for this -- it's inspiriational to many of...
I understand what you're looking for, but wonder if you're aware of the fact that the old pigstickers were made trapezoidal in cross-section for a reason -- if the chisel was not perfectly...
The LV Veritas dovetail saw (in either configuration) is indisputably one of the great bargains to emerge from the revival of woodworking hand tool manufacturing.
If you're seriously asking, I would direct you to google something like "anabolism vs catabolism" for an answer.
The short version is that the muscles are constantly being worked (broken down)....
I assume you're talking strictly about tools and not things like lighting or heating the workshop.
If so, I absolutely am 100% neander. And I mean not even using a cordless drill or electric bench...
a few caveats:
assuming you're talking planes -- disassemble first.
Simple Green, Krud Kutter, etc. are probably more effective than dish soap, but it'll do.
use an old toothbrush or...
Alex - a beautiful project with really fine photography -- well done!
btw -- your English is just fine.
Couldn't agree more.
It was the best one out there and not just because it had photos illustrating each incremental change. It was also easy to use.
Additionally, an amazing resource for...
That is beautiful -- very nice work.
I KNEW IT! - for some reason, when I first saw that turntable, I said to myself: "I bet he's into jazz." Maybe, subliminally, I derived this from your taste in furniture.
That is also my music of...
