Challenge 20 - 21. Ironwood.
Ok, I have to throw my hat into the ring here, even though I can’t commit the time and effort at the moment, I have stuff going on that stops me getting in my shed very much at all. So with that said, my thread will probably languish to the back of the field.
I have in mind a #3 sized smoother, brass/steel dovetails with timber bun style infills front and rear. I have some D4 blades somewhere, that I got on one of the Thumbsucker group buys, so will use one of them.
Thats my plan at this stage, but if it’s getting towards the end, and I still haven’t started, I will probably change course and build a Krenov style smoother.
Looking forward to following everyone else’s builds to give me the inspiration to get into mine.
