    Thanks for that Seb, I have always been intrigued by the Safe T Plane, now I've seen it in operation it can stay on the wish list

    Hi Sebastian

    Many thanks for the link to the video. I have a Safe-T-Planer but have got indifferent results from it. Now I know what I was doing wrong - it's obviously very important to hold the workpiece down firmly on the table.

    Cheers, Alex

    Impressive use of old drill bits. I've been busting my head recently thinking how to cut smaller radiuses than my follower bits for a pickup rout. That will do the trick very well.

    What a smart idea.

    It makes you ask "Why didn't I think of that?"

    I have no shortage of small blunt bits.

    Thanks Seb
