Hey Tom,

I'll take blades 2-5 (4 total) for myself and a friend. We'll probably make some euro beech cambered jacks.

Thanks! I'll PM

Looks good!!

Thanks for all of the photos.

Woah!! What a dream!! Sounds incredible :)

I'm not a sailor yet but maybe one day. I've chatted with a few people that sailed for a few years and it seems like a great way to experience the world....

Welcome :)

What areas did you sail? Congrats on setting up a home in such a magnificent area!

Adam

I'll take it thank you!

I've had difficulty working with rounded pieces and needing to hold them secure with almost all of the top accessible - especially when the bottom of the piece is heavily rounded.

I don't know much about prices but I had a scroll through the Amazon reviews for the Basswood and noticed the first 10 lots of feedback complaining that the blocks were tiny. The pieces are 5cm x 5cm...

Hi,

I'll take it please. I'll PM you to organise shipping.

Yep, what device are you using?

I added the pictures that I hosted on a seperate blog which may be why you can't see them. I tried on my computer and my phone and both worked for me.

I took up that offer a few months ago. I'm looking forward to visiting there again!

These all look brilliant!
Has anyone had issues with rust from having steel inside leather pouches?

I have a lot of chisel rolls that seem to be ok. I use oil or wax on the tools as well.

I'm...

I like the design!

How is the leather attached to the side bits of wood?

Good point!

One tip to consider is putting flaps over the pockets so they don't fill with debris. Mine don't currently. They are a tight fit and don't collect too much. I may re-do the bottom one with a flap.

Thanks I appreciate the advice! That gives a new meaning to 'fire-pits' :flamed2::burnt:

Thanks for the resource!

In the meantime, I'll watch and learn from this.

Does anyone have further recommendations for online learning resources that ARE good?

I noted "Glen Lucas, Stuart Batty, the late Alan Batty" mentioned near the beginning of this threat. I...

Wow! This is spectacular.

If this is the beginning, I won't be surprised if your designs make it into the Myer windows.

I've received mine as well. Thank you!

Again, sorry my internet must be slow or maybe there is a glitch in the system today.

Sorry my internet is slow today :)

Hey Maurice,

I'd be happy to accept that offer thank you.

However.... I'm totally cool if you prefer to sell the lot as a package as offered above.

Just let me know :)

Thanks, Adam

Thank you

Thank you!
