Spring day neandering

[sapwood]

It was just too nice Monday to spend time in the shop. I had some rough cut, "quarter round" cedar posts that needed a little smoothing so I grabbed a No. 6 and took to the yard. LOML saw how much fun I was having a snapped a photo. She also collected two bags of cedar shavings. :icon_thum

Life is good, but I [strike]need[/strike] want a scrub plane :glasses9:

Fence for the garden is underway. No wascally wabbits and rudolph the reindeer eating my veggies this year :eusa_pray

I need one good flat face on two cedar post to attach the door/gate. Luckily my FIL had some rough cut cedar and I should have enough to make the door too :mrgreen:

Get that bench up a foot before your back gives out Roger:slap:

Good exercise though!

 

[Steve W]

Yeah, I was also wondering how the heck you're able to plane that in the Workmate, as I have to be really careful with much smaller stock than that to not push too hard or the whole thing tips over!:elvis:

:kermit: Steve

Looks like a fun project Roger! And I'm glad Neandering referred to the tools, not your outfit....

 

[DaveO]

That's making Cedar bed shavings the hard way...I get mine at the pet store :gar-La;:gar-La;:gar-La;

Where did you find left-handed planes? And that looks like a right-handed Workmate BTW!

And they come in a big bag and all in one place. That is a nice looking piece of cedar.

My Workmate like that had flip down legs 'til one broke off. Is that why you're stooping? :wink_smil I hafta admire the resolve of a man who'd use a hand plane when he's so close to a power outlet!

I used to be, but after years of therapy I'm now ambivalent!

Do you really need a furriner to explain the correct term to you guys?! It's amphibious! Geez....

[BarryC]

I have a workmate just about like that but it comes up almost to my waist so thats gotta make you about 8' tall Roger and working on an 10"x10" post....

 

[Gofor]

I think Roger just stole that Workmate from DaveO's elves!! Good on ya' Roger. Gotta slow him down someway!:rolf::rolf:
