I noticed youve gone for open handles designs, :? any particular reason or just asthetics....nice job... when are you starting your first infill :o I

Its the strapping to the pallet that worries me :shock: :lol: I have seen one of these before which had a multiplier (speed increaser X4) on it which allowed its use as an overhead router as well, not an easy machine to clean though if used for the latter. good solid looking machine sorry...

Just came in for a look and missed this....any more scrit :)

possibly one or 2 :wink: but i really just wanted a look at the plane. I am trying to put the final touches to a couple of 16 degree skew mouth improved mitres LH and RH and i heard that this was a special mitre, done by norris for a competition, looking at it now its not what i thought it...

Just wondering if anyone here went to the Tony Murland auction not so long ago and took a picture of the Norris plane that fetched the £16000 price tag. I caught a glimpse of it on the news but would have liked to have seen a decent picture of it. I

David, first is a nice Norris 2, lower one i'm not so sure. reading Scrits reply i would probobly agree on a homebrew. The overstuffing looks to be well done and the rear handle looks custom. what scrit says about a patternmaker is possible but i would go for a cabinetmaker who new...

ohh yes you were definately hooked....looking at Phillys get together he is already there. way ahead of me :? David.....that is a good book you got...i like Garrets other books as well. well worth reading. another couple of books I have enjoyed reading recently are Patented transitional...

David, Youve had pretty sound advice from Scrit..personally i'd sell it and get either a new LV, LN, Clifton or Holtey :? whatever your budget will stand. You already said youve had it a long time and if you havent used it yet you probobly wont now. as scrit said the norris will...

Roger, A few opionions here but more related to the lapsharp vs tormek than the mk11. http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=26451 I

Paul, 6 months off the ****…..4 fights…nearly divorced….arrested twice…..road rage like I’ve never had before….and I’ve fallen out with everyone that’s close to me, Engerland has it all coming when the ban comes in. I am just learning how not to be so confrontational. Yes I agree...

Too many veritas MK11’s. Scrit….I’m not condemning the Tormek and apologies if it comes over this way, I have used one for last 5 years but i still have trouble with square ended tools and blades. I’m reluctant to get rid of it because I have spent a lot of money on all the jigs. I couldn’t...

oh dear... the slope didnt take long after the meet......watch out or it'll be the Holteys next :lol: Nick...I still find my Tormek slow and messy no matter how much pressure i put on it...I also find it very easy to mess up my edge by thinking i have it square in the jig then once i've...

Roger, I’m probably one of the few in the UK with both these systems……I also use a Jones and shipman for thinning and redoing bevels on blades. I have only had the Veritas MK11 power sharpener for a few weeks and wow I do like it. I got extra platters and grits but so far haven’t...

Jason, Yes...i got the warco mill cnc'd about a year ago....i have also bought a new (but secondhand) bridgeport interact cnc mill....(that was fun getting it into the workshop) and what a difference over the little mill. so now its a bit redundant although its handy sitting rigged up...

The link Alf showed is the 'bible' for most lathe users looking for info on the net. G and M have a good selection....they vary in price but will give you a general idea what you can expect for your money http://www.gandmtools.com/cat_branch.php?sub=1 Like Jason also said...precision =...
