Looks great, was that the sun I saw in your pictures, its been such a long time since we saw it here I`ve forgotten what it looks like!

What do you think of this http://vimeo.com/61698043, I think his designs are great, quite different. I contacted Edward to find out if he would be displaying any of his designs at this years Celebration of Design & Craftsmanship, he said he did not feel his work was sufficiently strong enough...

Nice chisels, I checked out your website there is some lovely work on there, looks like you`ve got a workshop to die for.

http://www.leevalley.com/US/images/item ... 0280s1.jpg I had a set of these for Christmas.

A good pattern makers vice would be nice, I think Lee valley made them at one time which were really good quality, the Axminster version is not that good.

I thought scousers were more likley to but(t) with their heads not their hearts. :D

1 for good idea.

Just for the record, I think the Clifton planes are the nicest looking, when compared with LN or Veritas.

Not wanting to stir up too much, I feel you've missed something. The low angle planes need the iron loosening by 1/2 a turn to adjust them. It is clearly stated on both their website and in the enclosed instructions. ~Nil carborundum illegitemi~ I have`nt read that and I did miss it, but...

Brilliant idea Fromey.

I wonder if anyone else has noticed a slight slip in the quality of Lie nielsen planes, I was going to buy one of their new low angle jack rebate planes, I took a look at one at last years Westonbirt show at the Classic Handtools stand, the qaulity of the mouth opening was quite poor, not very...

Graphgear 1000 by Pentel, not just a pencil but a beautiful piece of engineering, between £10 & £20 depending where you buy.

Went yesterday for the first time in about three years, it has changed a lot, except there is still not enough seating, finding a place to eat your lunch at 1pm is nearly impossible. I stopped by the Classic Hand tools tent and I wondered why they had bothered, I did nearly buy the new Lie...

Thanks for your replies, Foxhunter I believe water will rust the backing plate, CHJ I will get a safety sheet. Thanks, Mark W

Oh no that was Peter Sellers not Paul Sellers, Anyhow I`ve recently read that Paul Sellers uses glass cleaner on his diamond stones instead of lapping fluid, is this ok or could this lead to problems with the stone? I`ve also read...

I think krenov`s carved JK looked great, the Old Tool Store also do metal stamps, I believe David Barron got his from them. Regards, Mark

Good effort Chris, but completely ruined by the BBC sound archive team, perhaps you could record and post the actual sound of your plane planing wood, I would like to hear the difference. PS I think I also heard a Jigsaw in there (power tool) which was meant to be woodworking machinery.

He says not to lever against the mortise edges and then does exactly that!

I bought some items from the Yandles show which were going to be sent to me (sold out), I`ve been given three delivery days and so far I have not received them. Anyone else had the same problem.

James C, Buy all the Krenov books they all have useful information and not just about how to work with wood, krenov gives his philosophy on working with it. Mark W Happy new year.
