  • Granted, the 734 is loud, scary, able to shred careless fingers to a thin paste in less time than it takes to stick them where they shouldn’t go, but still. 
It took longer to get the rough-sawn oak boards out from “storage” under all that crap than it did to flatten them (by hand with a #05 on one face) and use the 734 to take them from ~32mm to ~21mm. Like, 25 minutes for four boards. That would have been a week of evenings normally, all spent doing donkey work with my scrub plane. 
I’m not giving up my hand planes, but I can see the place this has earned in the shed…. …going to have to sort out extraction mind you…  #woodworking
  • Joinery fettled, french curves deployed to get rid of sharp corners, shaping started. Some more spokeshave and compass plane time needed, and then it’s on to inlay and decoration over the coming week or so; then final rounding of edges (no point doing it while I need the reference edge to work off with inlay cutters) and finishing and final assembly and that’ll be that.  #woodworking #handtools  http://stochasticgeometry.ie
  • Not done yet - there’s fettling and shaping and inlay and resin and electrical work yet to come - but the plan is coming together…  #woodworking #handtools  http://stochasticgeometry.ie
