Tky a lot Argee! :D

Hello, Please is there someone to send me some of this screws ( I will pay you with paypal )? I have try 6mm screws but they doesn't fit. My router is a MOF-001 and the insert is a woodpeckers ( aluminium ). I am in france. Tky.

I am also a owner of the ece bow saw...I wanted to try a "classic" european saw. This saw is very aggressive and it's very difficult ( for me ) to start the cut. Of course I have the same problems...It's very hard for me to evaluate the state of the saw and my technique. Practice is the only way...

Many comments! cool and tky again! Actually I start bevel down for choping ( the chisel has less tendency to plunge into the wood in my experience) then I go bevel up for paring. Another thing is the fact that I currently prefer to work with the piece laying on his edge for shoping... :roll...

Tky guys, You cut directly in the knife line with the saw...Not easy ( I have never used a bench hook though ). Not safer to draw another knife line really near the final one and finish with paring the end grain?

Hi there, A newbie question here! how would you tackle something like this? the width of the piece is 60mm. the total thickness is 24mm...I must cut half wood ( 12mm). Sorry about the mistake in the drawing. the goal is to get rid of the red part with chisels ( 35mm) and saws ( nothing else...

Yep no tilt sensor on this bench :roll:

:D Lol... :arrow:

You are talking about the 50 degrees iron ( its the only one which is straight but skewed a little bit ). With or without the use of the lateral adjuster I think it's almost impossible to get a "strictly" perpendicular ( to the length of the plane) cutting edge and maintain that position while...

Hi David, taking any decision is really hard when you start.Rubbing my planes on sandpaper was a hard one...trust what you see is difficult too... Should I deal with the squareness of my blades first ( it looks like there's not too much work) ? I know that your advice is to stop the grinding...

Dont get me wrong I love my planes ( all veritas btw ) and I can get really good results ( for a complete newbie in this field...) . It's just recently that I have had some hard time with a piece of rosewood. The fact is that I have discover that they were not perfect ou of the box...but very...

I am just using a cerax combination waterstone (1000/6000) and the mkII honing guide nothing else on those blades. I have tryed to compensate for the bevel problem (on the LAJ54) with fingers pressure without success. I think I will try to regrind the skewed blade on a coarse sand paper. I...

happy to see that its not just me being a complete newbie :roll: And yes the registration for high angles on the mkII is tricky...Tks for the tip, I will try. some photos of my blades ( sorry I have no macro lens ): Not sure what to do with the blades now I have no grinder I have checked the...

Hi Jesse can you elaborate on that? My 50 degrees blade ( on my LAJ veritas but its the same blade if I remenber correctly) was more near 45 and also can you check if the blade is slightly curved?

Nice tool (the squirel tail looks cool) and congrate for your work! I have just take a look at your website :D I have started to build my first solid body guitar a few months ago : http://img395.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wip001lf2.gif http://img228.imageshack.us/my.php?image=tete02az8.jpg...
