I've used one in just a bench top for years. It wears but does the job. Cheers, Andy

As far as I can see it's a bookbinders embossing wheel. Never seen an extra handle before. Cheers, Andy

It would be lovely to see you. As a rule Mike has a broad selection of timbers which he will cut and plane to your requirements on the day, more in depth cutting lists may require a little longer. Cheers, Andy

Just to pop this back on the radar incase anyone is looking for a "jolly" next Sunday. If it seems a bit far away I'd say combined with a visit to the local picturesque area it makes for a beautiful day out. Cheers, Andy

I'm still trying to find the answer to how I can stop the key dropping out of the keyway of this assembly ? I believe this was a system of various stand alone Lurem machines that would share the same motor. By operating the two cam locking levers the motor and switchgear lifts away leaving the...

My best way is to point the plane towards any light source, look up the sole from the HEEL and adjust till it's where you think you need it.

I may be wrong but I believe you have not realised this is about turning scrapers ?

Threads bent at all ? Cheers, Andy

The crafts are getting proactively championed by many on Instagram but it's going to be difficult to reverse the trend. Do you have Instagram? Cheers, Andy

Try a pass without the first roller. Cheers, Andy

It may be you have the infeed fence out of line with the outfeed. Does the gap also eventually appear on the infeed? Those top rollers, do they toe in as they should? Cheers, Andy

Could you not do the initial parting chisel work to the max depth and then continue with a handsaw whilst it revolves ? Cheers, Andy

That'll be a cobblers heel shave. Cheers, Andy
