I guess I'll have to stick to my #7 stanley hand plane for now. Randy does have some really sweet lumber. He has the best hard maple for building workbenches.<br />GregGreg Penningtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03472967816313602434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6213963528573093276.post-48935812562173788182013-02-17T23:11:57.123-06:002013-02-17T23:11:57.123-06:00Greg,

He said it was for sale.. I don't have room for it, but I bet you could fit it in your garage! ;-)<br /><br />- Matt O'NeillMatt ONeillhttp://brokenfingerswoodworking.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6213963528573093276.post-73207907618183620302013-02-15T06:51:10.547-06:002013-02-15T06:51:10.547-06:00Hey Chuck, That is funny you noticed that.

For those of you who don't know a Robin Hood is when you shoot an arrow into the back of another arrow during target practice or competition. You may also notice this picture is upside down. I wanted the form to be pictured upright and was too lazy to flip it over for the picture.<br />GregGreg Penningtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03472967816313602434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6213963528573093276.post-59570714446801673552013-02-15T00:13:47.803-06:002013-02-15T00:13:47.803-06:00Greg I would like to congratulate you on the Robin...Greg I would like to congratulate you on the Robin Hood in the back ground of the picture of your bending form. Strange the things our eye catch that could otherwise go unnoticed. If I’m not mistaken the look like GameGetter II arrows. Gave up archery and took up chair making (medical problems). I enjoy your blog and always look forward to new posts. <br />Chuck<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05119812881135855172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6213963528573093276.post-61411204522350910032013-02-14T07:25:56.078-06:002013-02-14T07:25:56.078-06:00Jamie,

The adze just doesn't save me enough time to justify starting out with it. A really sharp scorp can make fast work hollowing a seat. Thanks, great question.<br />GregGreg Penningtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03472967816313602434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6213963528573093276.post-46537106884210590652013-02-14T01:25:37.279-06:002013-02-14T01:25:37.279-06:00Greg do you begin your seat carving with an adze o...Greg do you begin your seat carving with an adze or do you go straight to the scorp?<br />JamieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
