    You've either been VERY good, or VERY bad! If it's the latter, sleep lightly!

    Happy Birthday!!

    Don,
    Yikes!! I get real nervous when I see those brand new sharp tools!
    I ALWAYS use dull tools because it gives me an excuse for producing all of the scrap that comes out of my shop. Does your wife have an available sister? MY wife usually gets me used underwear from our local Goodwill Megastore!!

    Whatever, congrats on the new stuff. Be sure to post some pics for our "Reading Challenged" bottom feeders!!

    I am so busy REMAKING my projects that I don't have time to make them the FIRST time!

    Gota agree with Scott...you've either been very good or you should be sleeping with one eye open, given all the new sharp implements in the house.

    Congrats on the new toys, and happy b-day, too.

    Keith,

    Don't you know that's a new ogee scraper.
