Unfortunately tax preparation season has infringed upon my shop schedule as of late, but with that out of the way I'm settling back into a steady rhythm of work. I've completed the 912-50S plane that features the Macassar Ebony knob and tote. That plane is on the way to the new owner in India. You can see the completed plane in the linked video.
I can now turn my full attention to the plane that will receive the Olive wood and I should have that plane complete in fairly short order. (I probably should have never said that!) Once that plane is complete I will be looking forward to starting a group of Stainless Panel Planes.
Yes there is more video this week and in the traditional idea that a picture is worth a thousand words I'll cut short the written commentary and let the video, which is thousands of pictures, do the talking.
Once again the music is by Peach Pie Band,

"I should have that plane complete in fairly short order", at least you haven't committed yourself to a date and time. Best to keep it loose. Another great plane and video.
ReplyDeleteThe song "Hey Packy" was written by the great songwriter George Gerdes. He was a regular performer at the Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs in the 70's. He had two albums out at the time, "Obituary" and "Son of Obituary".
ReplyDeleteAny chance we could get a video showing how you adjust the plane for thick vs. thin shavings?

ReplyDeleteI believe that can be arranged. I'll try to include that in a near future blog post.
Thanks BeachCricket. I finished the Olive wood plane this morning and pictures will be featured in an upcoming blog post.

Tico that's one of my favorite songs on the CD. Julie pointed out that I missed a great opportunity to feature my lab in this video. Well, maybe another time. Know any other good dog songs?

Well, since you live in Georgia, I'll bet you know about Gid Tanner and the Skillet Lickers. Here is their version of the classic "Hound Dawg" or "Ya Gotta Quit Kickin My Dog Aroun":
