@rathius I’m in Kentucky, USA and it’s Summer. That means it’s hot here, and high humidity, plus I don’t have A/C in my garage/workshop. Come to Scotland, we had our summer last week. We got up to ...

They made a LOT of things better back then. Well made them to last not to be thrown away in a few years. Planned obsolescence, the only way corporations can survive these days. Too many companies figh...

@julioherrera Welcome Julio. Enjoy the ride. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

I finally found it on Udemy! It's in the section on gluing the body blanks! Take the new razor blade and scrape it on a sharpening stone. It creates a burr which helps with scraping! Cheers!

I recall @markbailey providing a tip for how to make a disposable razor into an awesome scraper/planer and I can't find it again on udemy. Can anyone either point me to the session or just share how i...

@steveh Any thoughts how I can make this ok, without it looking like a dog’s dinner? Or should I chalk it up to experience and start with another blank? I was thinking, reduce the top as @njs says,...

Thanks Koen - ever the source of sage advice 🤣
