Post by: Branson on November 03, 2011, 06:45:38 PM: A good beer, Spanish guitar music, and a new passel of tools to play with... Life doesn't get much better. Papaw, the postal person just delivered all the stuff, and it arrived in great condition. I'm wondering if the pieces will fit the plane body I recently picked up. No matter if it doesn't, since I have a box of pieces/parts for other planes, and it's bound to fit something. Ditto the block plane cap. I'm thinking the augur will fit my boring machine (at last a good augur bit for that!). I have a real fondness for the firmer chisel, and if I don't have a handle, I have a lathe. Ditto the Hudson 1/2 inch socket.
Dang but that was fast! I feel like a kid on Christmas morning!
