Thanks @robin and @boo. Only parts of my shop are really organized. Certain things have their spot. It is not a big area so I need to keep it semi in order or I get buried. It is surprising how…   Read more»

@bpower Yeah I agree with @robin your chisel rack and work area looks so organised. Mine always starts out like that but slowly descends into chaos. 😜✊
It’s looking good, keep going.  

@robin thanks! Turned out nice!

Posted by: @robin I’ve got a big wooden plane that I think was was grandad’s, I rescued it from going to the skip a few months ago when my brother was clearing out his garage. @robin I rescued a lot…   Read more»

Posted by: @robin I like that clever trick of taping a batten over the body when he was planing the flat angle over the horn end. @robin Yeah liked that too. What do they call those big planes? Is it…   Read more»

@rocknroller912 Holy moley 😳

@robin that’s why you bring friends. It’s a team sport now. 🙂

@robin
My town has a whisky distillery also opened a few years ago and it does tours. Cafe as well.

@robin I bought one during the summer to replace an old worn bit that I’ve had for years. I used it for the body on my practice electric build. It was good enough for the job, Tungsten Carbide is harder…   Read more»

I haven’t @robin but as far as I know Trend makes (or has made) good stuff. I imagine they will work for at least as long as your old bits, let us know how they perform.

@robin thanks, I am based in Stockport near Manchester

Thanks @robin. I’ve now got some plastic boxes with lids so hopefully the tools will be fine. I probably will keep the wood in the house over the winter……if I can find a space for it. I have worried about…   Read more»

Welcome Ben,
I agree with @robin. You’re going to be able to teach us some new skills. Enjoy the ride. 
🙂🎶🎸🙏

@robin Great choice Robin. He is such a super star, what a master he is at this style of playing. I remember finding him a few years back and I couldn’t believe it, absolutely amazing. 👍
