Best of luck Bob, this is a horrible situation but you seem to be doing well. I'm a key worker and my job is secure so I can't imagine how you and your guys are feeling throughout all this. I'd happily pay a little extra tax if it meant the government could somehow save all small businesses...

Up to about a week ago, I thought there was only two types of planes. Hand plane and electric plane. Now I know there are lots of types of hand planes, how and where can I learn about them? I don't even know where to start. I would guess the difference in them is something to do with the angle...

It's a bit of a different way of thinking for me. Normally if be thinning "where can I buy what I need" but now it's more "how can I make what I need"! Very odd! So, who is Mike, how did I upset him and should I be worried? :lol:

Thanks for the welcome folks! So my "workshop" is a shed that doubles up as normal home storage. The inner dimensions are a measly 7ft by 5ft. Most of my tools are second hand from when I moved in here, they were already in here like a couple of rusty chisels that I've managed to clean and sand...

Hey Folks! New "joiner" and total newbie here. I'm not in any relevant trade and have no knowledge or experience. Got some random tools, mostly from boot sales and I've got tools for basic DIY for when that pops up. I've recently started becoming interested in using my tools more and discovered...
