Or on the handle's spine.

Hi Owl. I have an “extension “ plate and although it is large and with a deep two inch wide slot, it just doesn’t do it. Plus, the added plate seems to exasperate a leveling challenge. I own a Pheer grinder, like it pretty good, no real complaints. But, having seen Travis’ doubler plates I was...

Good morning Ed, thanks for the reply. Yes, I have seen that, but, nothing seemed to answer or show what I am asking. Thought I'd ask someone who has one. I have a similar work rest and when I tilt to the maximum angle, the area where the actual table pivots ,underneath, hits the contact wheel...

Hey Ed. Since you have that articulated rest I would like to ask you a question please. What is the steepest angle you can adjust it to relative to the platen/or wheel tool arm? Will the rest’s pivot hit the wheel or platen at maximum tilt? Thanks in advance. Scott Guindesigns - using a tool...

Although repairs can be an unexpected pain in the posterior, it is good to be creatively handy . Scott

This last knife leads me to ask a question. On light colored, unstabilized wood scales, like the quilted Maple I just used, is there something to be done about the epoxy migration from the pin into the wood? The pins were a tight, tap in fit and the holes were a clean drilling. The scales were...

Lots of shop time out there. I just finished another, not sharpened yet though.

I'm only essential to my family, especially the grandbabies! ;-)) Getting great shop time amid the honeydo's. Stay healthy all of you. Scott

Hey Bruce. If you set the saw blade a tad above half way up and cut, then flip end for end and cut again, using push sticks and a feather board it is very quick and safe enough. Make sure to push all the way through. I made a sliding push stick that straddles and rides on the table saw fence...

Not sure why you would need a custom Table Saw blade, when the store bought, thin kerf, carbide tip ripping blade will work. Crosscut, high count tooth blades overheat the wood and blade really easy because the tiny chips don't clear the gullets fast enough and build friction. Dangerous enough...

You probably should get a thin kerf carbide tipped ripping blade. Freud brand (red coated) is what I use and get pretty good results. I set the blade height to just above half, cut, then flip end for end and finish with a push stick. Make sure your table insert covers the slot as close to the...

Off the topic, but, what did you finish the Bodock with, if I may ask? Did you put the knife together at the 7% ? Have you tried your HF meter on thin wood, say 1/4"? I appreciate the info you're sharing.

Thanks Randy. I don't have an accurate scale that'll work at such light weights. Plus pre-sizing the materials to fit the dehydrator will force me to make cutting decisions I don't want to make ahead of the knives. I just want to get my wood dry and then acclimate it to a known moisture content...

Hey all. I have a slew of thin wood that I will be using for scale material. It comes from all over the place, wood stores, shows, the forest, scraps from projects, you get the idea. I want to insure that the moisture is low enough to use most of it without stabilizing. Almost all of it is...

The way I do it is to scribe a "grind to" line on the front, use my rest on an angle and chase the curve or straight bevel that I want. I then change the grit and repeat till I get it fine enough, hit it on the buffer easy...

Awesome work Randy. Much success at your show. After you sell out, ;-) , take some pictures if you have time. Scott
