Unabashed gloat.... (and an apology).

[WellsWood]

So, having wrecked my beloved M42 bandsaw blade on a screwfix Turbogold screw, I popped down to Axminster in Bobbing yesterday afternoon for a replacement.
Since I had made the journey it seemed churlish not to grab a couple of other things I needed to justify the petrol. I came a way with a pair of these, one of these..


and a little something extra, here's a clue

can you guess what it is yet?

 

[Aled Dafis]

Unmistakably Clifton.

But what No.??

Cheers

Aled

I've read the post twice - and I don't see the apology anywhere!

 

[wizer]

buahahaha :lol

Maybe the apology should be from me for giving the final tip over the edge? :wink:

 

[WellsWood]

the apology comes after the reveal, it'll all make sense.

Aled's clearly no stranger to those famous blue boxes.

come out come out wherever you are

All together now: oooh, aaah

the apology is to Philly, because i came away from Waka's last weekend fully intending to get him to make me one of his. In the end though I needed it pronto, and since they had one in stock I was obliged to have a fondle . Once I'd held it the deal was done, it just felt so right in my hand the plastic practically leapt out of my wallet of it's own accord.
Sorry Philly, maybe next time. Hmm.... those raised panels won't cut themselves, I'm thinking moving fillister?.. skew rebate?

 

[Philly]

Hah! No worries, Mark. I'll always be here, ready and waiting...... :wink: :lol:
Enjoy,
Philly

Mark - youv'e obviously been inspired by Waka's collection :wink: :lol: - Rob

 

[Jake]

Ah, it makes sense now. There was I thinking the apology would be for the egregious gloating.

 

[wizer]

you'll never cut loose tenons with one of those!

 

[WellsWood]

don't be silly :wink:

 

[Paul Chapman]

That's nice, Mark - the best #7 plane currently available IMHO.

Cheers :wink:

Yes these bashes along with shows like cressing Temple do tend to add somewhat to one's impetus down the slope, don't they :roll:

Ordered your Domino yet?

There'll be no stopping you now though...you'll get plenty of help here :lol: :lol: - Rob

 

[WellsWood]

Sadly Rob, I don't need much help 8-[ , as Tom will I'm sure be more than happy to attest to.

(I notice you didn't answer my question.)

Mark - I've become Domino resistant for the time being 8-[ until such time as I give into the impulse to have one (breaking strain of a Kit-Kat here) or a suitable job comes along where it's justified or enough surplus folding become available or I can get hold of a decent second hand one
...so for the foreseeable future I'll be Dominoless - Rob

 

[Mikey R]

Hi Mark, that looks like a fine plane. Im really taken with Clifftons, really well designed and executed.

It was good to talk with you briefly at Cressing Temple. I very nearly left with a few more planes too!

Tell me more!. Do you make custom planes?. Looking at Bridge City Toolworks Planes as they look lovely and something I would cherish.
