The top is only 12mm thick or something like that, but I see what you mean and I may chamfer the edge. I'll go have a look at it tonight and reassess. Well spotted about the hinges. They are Set into the box but not enough, I think the barral is to far forwards to ill have to sort that out too...

I appreciate the feed back, I'm allways looking to improve my skills. There are things I would do differently next time but learnt a lot from this build. Maby I lost my head when I posted my comment but, i seen hundreds of comments on planes, sharpening and God knows what else, I felt that...

Tools all going Sunday. TT

I see, Thanks chaps. If I was a turner id never have to buy wood again, sadly im not. So all the beautiful woods get at work go to the dump.. Sad isn't it. Again thank you for your views that have answered my question TT

Gents, I'm not a turner myself but I have turned the odd bit in the past, these days I make furniture and the such with hand tools. Naturally, tho I can't remember when it started I collected various tools either because of age, value or beauty. We call it's te slippery slope, planes being the...
