@tv101 thank goodness I am not the only one.

@koendb wow! Thought I hade a lot at 9.

@nsj I had 2 planes (No4 and a 9 1/2 type of block plane ) for the last 2 years, now I suddenly have 38 😬 😎

@tv101 if only I could buy them sharp! No such luck lol

you mean you buy a new one whenever the blade on the old one gets blunt too? 🤣 🤣

@koendb love nice old hand planes, last year I started with none but by the end of the year I had over 10 lol

Ah I dont hve the circular cutter yet, but the router parts are on order, I am making my own as designed by Paul Sellers 🙂 Speed is not always needed, I can buy perfectly squared wood, but planing and...

Nice work on the build @Clinton, I need to find out how to open the vids in youtube though, I just can't get them to play nicely on the site for some reason.

@russ I've got a grany tooth plane, just need the blades lol

Hi @koendb Get yourself a handheld circle cutter and a grannies tooth plane. Great fun but 100 times slower than your Dremel. 🤣 Attachment : Screenshot_20230115-130719.png Attachmen...

@tv101 Yes the CnC is so cool. I use it now to make templates. Huge time saver and super accurate especially if you have the proper router bits which I really need. Also CAD designing gets me back int...

@russ Don't get me wrong, I do use power tools too, I just think it is great to develop the skills to not be dependent on them to finish a task. Also, it is nice to be able to do some work in silence,...

I viewed the CNC - at least the design part of the process - as being another learning exercise and opportunity to develop new skills. I viewed it as a more reliable method as the CNC has been less p...

Yup, let me know too @koendb. Though there's absolutely no chance of me ever trying anything similar!!!

@koendb No, only use the frame saw for cutting bookmatching tops and bottoms. Primarily for acoustics but with several kerfing plane sizes that I built I now can cut from 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 to 3/4 inch thi...

You're a brave man @koendb.........or maybe just a very patient man. I'm using mostly hand tools for my current build but I have used a router for the rosette channel and I think I would have been at ...

@clinton I love your work and methods! Did you ever try to use that frame saw to cut a scarf joint? I am thinking about buying one, but its so big, that I need to justify its usability 🙂 I guess havin...

Nice work (of course!) @clinton, and videos are great too. 👍

Two fantastic bases @clinton. 👍 🎶🎸🙂🙏
