Currently I have a 1000 and 6000 grit stones but I want to upgrade them as they’re tedious to use, I soak them in water but even after soaking them they dry up mid use and it’s getting annoying. I don’t know where I bought them so not sure what brand they are but were not expensive. Can...

Well I will be making myself a bed frame soon, possibly made of oak, but I would like to start making furniture and see how things go. I bought a QS number 6 which should be delivered soon and will complement that with a decent block plane, I just didn't want to go mad Spending on a high end...
