I remember when metrifrikashun first cam in and the wood suddenly went mm . A mate of mine went to his usual wood yard and asked for some 2 X 4. "Ah" says the bloke in there "it ain't 2 X 4 now mate. It's 50 X 100". "OK" says me mate "as long as it's the same size I don't care what it's called. How much is it?" The reply was "10p a foot"
Prize.
Gordon, I could get very upset at being called slapdash! I'll have you know that I work to very tight tollarences and never let them go beyond +- 1/2"
"Thats why I got my planes skimmed on the cylinder head machine."
I'll bet that increased the compression ratio, does it make them harder to push. I usually leave my planes as per the plan.
c'est moi and my 10' span Minimoa on Selsley Common. Lovely plane :mrgreen:
