This is peer group pressure,[emoji6]

Cheers Matt.

Ian,
Hopefully CK might get us a better picture.but I’m not moaning this time,[emoji849].
It really has a pronounced turn, that only a right handed person would find comfortable, lefties would hate...

One aspect of the Plane that was quite interesting too me, an I’ve spoke briefly with CK about is, how religion crept into Plane design in Europe,
The front horn Knob what ever it is called is...

Ian,

I’ve never heard of that either, but that’s possibly due to being a space cadet half the time I’m awake, so blades that didn’t make the cut were re re-purposed seems logical to be honest.

I assume...

Thanks everyone so far, Tony ye I do like too work late or after Sunset so definitely need lighting, inside the workshop,

I’m fairly certain it’s called “Brass putty” in some circles [emoji6].

We won’t know if there’s any gaps, if you fill them with little bits of brass an tap them in, honestly know one will know, unless you plan on providing X,rays of the joints,
Not that I would do...

MA, As Ian said looks like a very good bashing, you should feel proud of that metal manipulation, any Roman would be happy with that, but don’t sit there staring at it, get the file out an make it...

Try a cutting disk in a grinder or go old school an use a Hacksaw.
