Crucible Planing Stop
We have always loved blacksmith-made planing stops, which are embedded in the end of a block of wood that is about 3” x 3” x 12”. The block is friction-fit into a mortice in the benchtop and moves up and down with mallet taps.
In our experience, the planing stop is as important as the workbench’s face vice and has almost-endless uses.
The main problem with a blacksmith...

55°
Knew Concepts 6 1/2'' Coping Saw
On the Knew Concepts Coping Saw the blade is tensioned by a cam-lever and pulls so taut that the blade "sings" when plucked.

The solid steel indexing blade-hooks lock in eight 45° positions...

Pentel Graphgear 1000 Automatic Pencil Set
We were first put onto these little beauties by Jaap Bosma (the taller half of Mappa Tools).

These tools have carbon steel blades, not HSS that you would find in the turning tools we offer from the likes of Hamlet and Robert Sorby.

These tools have carbon steel blades, not HSS that you would find in the turning tools we offer from the likes of Hamlet and Robert Sorby.

How does one get to this point? And how do you stay there?
One answer to these questions is in this book....
Veritas Inlay String Thicknesser
The critical dimension for string inlay material is thickness. If too thick it won’t fit into the groove; too thin, and it will leave an unsightly gap. This Veritas Inlay String Thicknesser scrapes veneer - or any narrow, thin stock up to 2½" wide - to the exact thickness required.
