Beautiful work I like both of those =D>

And a ball pein hammer is used for? ............. Actually I would rather not know :shock:

Due to the fact I have no idea what a plane hammer is or does I will tell everyone who see's it that it is an acorn smasher upper. :D

The images I posted really do not do the gift justice, They have a lovely weight and a wonderful feel to them the quality really is top notch. I have never owned a marking knife nor a acorn smasher, LOOK OUT ACORNS :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Is that groove done using just the knife or is it a combination of knife and chisel? Who would of thought something as simple as not using a knife could cause so many problems. Seeing you pictures it makes total sense why I should use one. Thank you for taking the time to do so, I am looking...

With a pencil and square.

Today I tried using a different saw A Ryobi japanese saw and it made a big difference, So I attempted to make a halving joint ........... note the word attempt.

A suspected Covid-19 male patient is lying in bed in the hospital, wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose. A young student female nurse appears and gives him a partial sponge bath. "Nurse,"' he mumbles from behind the mask, "are my testicles black?" Embarrassed, the young nurse replies...

It looks so easy :D

Today I have attempted a halving joint and have kind of seen where my sawing goes wrong (not tried chiseling out yet) I seem to be sawing a little askew, from the far edge to the near edge of the cut it seems to go over to the right a lot. On a small cut of 30mm I manage to stray by about 1.5mm...
