Hi Philip,

Is the first pic of a plane kit? If so, can you confirm the company? I am always curious to know what people find success with...

Thanks,
Marc

James: that's one thing I need - one of the micro adjust marking gauges... and I added my spokeshaves after the fact - I forgot about them.

Phillip: I forgot about the card scraper insert that LV...

I have only used the 3110 a few times, but only as a shoulder plane - I guess it's one of the situations where "if you don't have a better one, you don't know what you're missing... "

I may get...

You're right! I forgot about that - my mortise/marking gauge I bought is not working to my expectations...

This could become expensive - but I also am getting a big bonus in Feb....

Thanks Mike!
The 778 does have the fence, so I am good there.

I will check on the scraper plane and the apron planes, as well as a wooden bodied plane - that's a new area for me....

I will...

I forgot to add one - my Clifton 3110 plane, so that covers the bullnose, chisel and shoulder plane in one unit. I didn't want to buy 3 different planes, so it seemed to be a good compromise. I have...

Hi,

Here's my list of hand planes:
Record planes:
(almost new)
No. 4
No. 4 1/2
No. 5 1/2
No. 778 duplex rabbetw/fence
no. 60 1/2

No worries - the oak came planed and jointed and in the board widths required, so it's a straightforward deal.

Timing couldn't have been better - got it yesterday - today is my birthday! :)

I did get a screw with details, etc. It was in the manila colored envelope.

I haven't touched anything yet (except whne doing the "ooooo, aaaaah thing).-

I cannot believe how comfortable the...

It's arrived... I am now a proud father of a brand new baby LV BUJ with the jointer fence.

It didn't cost me a cent, either - I am doing it in exchange for a tabletop done with quartersawn and...

I don't mind watching the demonstrations, they are very informative.

Following Jim Becker's comments: how about allowing the "touch/feel" thing with the unit powered off and/or disconnnected if...

I hope the catalog shows up soon... hopefully there's a table saw and planer/jointer in my future, and I am curious what's new...:D

I guess I am a little behind... my post count puts me at around the 700 mark overall...:eek:

I prefer to listen and learn, and occasionally post. The plain truth is that I am nowhere near the...

Good points - generally I don't use it online, but it depends on the retailer.

Visa check covers all losses, but the unwanted hassle of collecting your money is NOT fun...:mad:

I definitely...

My 60" Besseys arrived today! So far, no problems working with them...

Alden, I hope everything works out OK...

Alden: Used my Visa check card, and it's been posted as a credit. Total turn around was 2-3 business days from the time it was cancelled....:)

Gary: I guess I ordered them too late - about 2-3...

Alden,

Thanks for the heads up - my order for 4x 98" Besseys fell through at Timberline, but I did get the 4x 60" clamps from them.

It's too bad you can only order 2 clamps and get that...

Very generous - it's been a long time since I've won anything - perhaps my luck will turn....:)

I too ordered some of the LV when they had the deal - and I just ordered 4 of the 98's from Timberlinetools - sahweeeeeeet...:D:D:D:D

They're only $35.20 each.... :eek: :eek: :D :D :D


Martin: Now I can see why the longer lengths are useful, such as for big tabletops... ;)

LOML thought it was kind of strange that I...

If you are interested, please check out the post in the General woodworking section - details are there...

I just bought 4 Bessey 60" clamps for $113 :eek: (includes shipping), with the shipping price at $1 on all orders... sweet deal if you need some clamps.:D:D:D:D

They have the monster sizes for...

Jay's recommendation and Mike's statements have made me want to look this book over - thank you both for posting... :o

It seems to work much better than Google...:eek:

You can search by author, words in title, subject or even the isbn number of the book (surprise).
