Secret Santa gift thread

If I already have fixtures, do I need to change anything to use these? Also, I don't see specs on the bulbs in the shop light that I assume you were referencing, as listed here.

I just moved from a 13" Delta lunchbox to a generic 16" stationary unit that I got a deal on because it required some work (full take-apart and de-rusting). It took a lot of work to set it up after re-assembly (just as listed). I hope I don't have to go through that again anytime soon.

Has the stone been flattened?

the black marks could easily be metal being removed. That woukd make sense.

Got pics?

WOW factor of about 7 trillion Steve. I'm just starting with burning after watching Cynthia Gibson a couple months ago at our chapter meeting. Thanks for sharing.......Priceless!

If you have some free time this, or tomorrow afternoon stop by The Woodworkers Gym for a sneak peek. Details can be found on the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/TheWoodworkersGym/

Is the screwdriver from a kit, or your own adaptation? It almost looks like a copper ferrule rather than brass.

There's nothing like a nice dense wood handle on a screwdriver.

What kind of work are you wanting to do? The plow is a very nice plane, but it really only does one thing - makes grooves. Were it me, I'd get one Auriou finer grain rasp and a spokeshave. The combo will really work well in shaping handles, table legs, and the like. You might also consider a drawknife. In the coarse-medium-fine approach, the drawknife would be your coarse-to-medium tool. I find my drawknives make very quick work of shaping spoons and handles.
