Got my record 52 last week on ebay.
Wow the quality.
Also went silly and bought about 20 planes
( my money not the sheds) as we just started a mens shed and I want the guys to get into the old school way of working.
Going to fit to a worktop bench with a moxen vise.
Looking to build a small worktop bench with MFT holes and a Moxon vice and maybe tail end vice.
Anyone have a good source of moxon vice parts as the kits are quite expensive.
Part of a new shed so maybe a few members might also want to copy the build.
Cheers guys
Kev.
That is so wrong, going out of his way and then getting abuse.
Let them spend the hundreds it would cost to fix.
Then maybe be a little more pleasant in the future.
That is some beautiful kit.
I've got some of them but a bit jealous right now.
Just spent about 600 quid on old Record hand planes ( in a week) and will donate a few to our new 6 week old mens shed.
Hartland Men's shed fleet. ( little plug for the shedders)
Well said,
try and find a trade person willing to fix a burnt out cable on a toaster.
As a new shed member we are asked not to build anything that a local carpenter would do as part of their livelihood.
I personally would take your basic tools but not every single variant you own.
But also hold back in your car a more specialist set in case you come across a more unique issue, rather than bodge a repair by using the wrong tool.
I think over time you will get to know what you reach for and what...
