    Bit of a life update

    Hey, y'all! I haven't been around in a while. A year ago, I moved to Seattle. I now live on a tugboat, Arthur Foss, which is the oldest wood tugboat afloat in the world. I also work on a wood hulled steamship, the SS Virginia V, where I get to play with the 113 year old tripple expansion...

    Going to be representing NCWW in LA

    Thanks, y'all, for the well wishes! I have a few ideas for woodworking projects once I get moved out there and set up, so I might be coming back for advice. Ugh, I can't stand water based varnish. It always seems to do weird things. I hope at least BLO is allowed!

    Anyone around Fayetteville able to do resaw and plane one board?

    I have one maple board that I'd like to resaw, it should be just thick enough at 4/4 to saw down the middle. It's 4' long and about 1' wide. Once that's done, I'd like to plane the two resulting pieces down to 1/8 or so. Thanks much, John.

    Treatment With Fungi Makes a Modern Violin Sound Like a Stradivarius

    I can tell the difference between instruments. I do not always prefer the older one over the new. In fact, I will prefer different instruments depending on what mood I'm in. I have a three nice mandolins; a bowl back from the 1880s, a 50 year old Gibson, and a new Laplant. Of the three, I...

    What method do you use to sharpen your hand tools?

    I use a natural Arkansas stone and an old wallet for a strop. When I'm done sharpening, I can shave with the blade.
