Just a look it to what as be going on

I think i have forgot to tell you all I am going to have no. 2 in OCT… All I know is it’s healthy
So I have been doing my best to judge when to go out in shop and when not to…... mostly not to …..

But I have been work on a tool chest when I can…slow go.

New additions:

(1) Rikon 14’ BS have not got to use it much but nice.

Also a surprise tool

(2) Delta deluxe bench top mortiser. Why a surprise, long story short.. I have be talking to a electrition about wiring of my shop and got into talking wood working. Well I found out he as the itch also.
He told me he bought this pallet of tools from a store. For some reason they did not get send back tool factory. So what he got is tools people brought back under warranty. He said he had gotten 2 motise machines and asked would i like one. I did not want to be rude so I accepted. Now I did have to buy 25$ worth of parts to bring back into new status but.. Well at same time he did tell me he is getting married in a week.

So in spirit of thing I though I would fix up a old Stanley #4 plan (lap bottom, clean, shellac, new hocks iron and chip breaker) also it would be nice if it was in a box.

I have got plane done and I am working on box.

Will post pic as finished project as time in shop is skinny at best.

-- Do it right the first time. Becuase fixing it is a wast of time.
