Yeah, what they said. :aro-u: Excellent idea.

You're wasting your collective breaths! :) He was last seen the day he asked the question and then vanished. :spyme:

So do you reckon if I bung on a case of the man flu I'll get vintage tools in the mail? :;
Full race harness here, let's go!

Yep! :D

Yes Graeme, I've done that when I haven't had the right size brad point to hand. It's not easy to do on the smaller sizes but if you have some hand grinding experience, it's fairly easy on anything...

So happy to see the return of the tablecloth! Also happy to see you using the lost art of sketching and it's lookin' good. Not too fussed about pulling up a chair near the fire, a bit too warm for...

Nice work MA, looks great.

I'm pretty sure I've got some 4mm but I'm not home till tomorrow. I can send you some if I have it.

:sleep1: :sleep1: :sleep1: :q

Just do it Matt. I need to watch you blokes making planes so I don't need to make another one myself. :roll:
Oh, and I like the style of the one you're looking at.

Great result MA, but it's the way it was always going to be.

Yeah, but what makes it 'Chestnut' other than thinking a yank term will make it sell. :roll:

It looks like it depends on who you ask MA.

Welcome Dave. Your question would probably find the right audience HERE in the bandsaw forum.

Lookin' good MA.

Go for it MA! I'm certainly not the 'expert' you're seeking but I tend to use dividers for marking lines parallel to an edge. I also have an old metal marking gauge (Eclipse??) that I use when the...

I made one for mine last year after a couple of years thinking "It'll turn up in the bottom of the toolbox somewhere".
I cut the thread on the lathe and just hand shaped the grip on the grinder.

1/2" x 20 might be a bit big I think. :)

That's very nice!

:- Yes, and it has also effected my memory, :doh: or maybe that's from the beer consumed. :rolleyes:

When I saw the title of this old thread my sick mind went straight to one of these. Thanks for thee memories. :D

That's a beauty Jim. I wish I could find leftovers like that at my place! :U

Very nice Alex.

yeah 'fake' for sure.

And now the "Benevolent Dictator" is on the band wagon. :oo: :U

Yeah sorry, they're black listed. :q

I've been wondering the same thing. :?
So what on earth has that got to do with Australia, it's just BS. :~

Our first design change was to add more weight to the sole of the plane, lower the centre of gravity, to get the advantage we had enjoyed with the No 5. We looked at...

Hope the weather holds out for you Matt. Thanks for the update.

Nice!
That's a wicked lead screw.

I like that Ian, nice work.

I like the design Lance, you'll nail it next time.

It's not just a Vicmarc thing, I had the same with my Woodfast a few years ago.

Below was my answer to this some time ago. At the time it was regarded as unsafe by some but it continues to work just fine nearly 20 years later. Just don't work on anything without unpluging it...

Looks like Qld Maple is the winner here. :)
I went for Cedar based on the colour and age, and that every bank I've ever worked on around here from that era had Cedar fit out. Qld maple wasn't at all...

Cedar.

I've just put the same book back on the shelf. Too many close matches, keep watching for the flowers.

That's a nice trick to capture the cast iron swarf Derek. SWMBO recently bought one of those mag trays for me, but I don't like magnetic things in my shed, and gave it away. Should have kept it for...

Thanks Matt! This confirms to me that the ex-spurts have been wrong all along. The correct angle, as proven by the 'frog' is 36.758°. :bye:

If they're M6, or any of the other taps I have, I'll make you a pair when I get home in two weeks. That way the knurl will match.

What they :lolabove:. said. That's a pi$$a.

:brava:brava:brava Exquisite as always Ian.

Just bloody brilliant Keith, I've enjoyed the ride as usual. Such a fitting gesture to name your creation after your bowling friend, with his connected history. :2tsup: :2tsup: :2tsup:

She was also involved in the protest against the French nuclear tests at Mururoa Atoll in 1973.

Like Ian, less than a minute for me. Can you imagine what that would do for your wrist? Mine's bad enough after 40 years with a proper hammer!

I like that idea Neil. Where did you source your flex shaft for it?
