Alright since my bike is done, I need to fix me positioning and tear in the seat but tbh there is nothing out there that get my attention aside for going 10 speed once my kit gives up the ghost which should be this season.
I'm now going to turn my attention to woodworking and house chores. I want to make 2 planes by September.
First a router plane I need one sooner then later and I don't like the 71s, for what they command I would prefer something warmer to the touch and modern solutions have the same problem.
I don't like the L shaped blades so I think I'm going to get a 3/8ths iron(o1) and resting on a high angle approach.
Second I need a shoulder plane, I don't like the way Norris or Spiers shape. I will most likely regret that, I'm sure those fuckers knew what they were doing, their users were doing that 6 days a week for 10 hour days. I am going to attack with the same construction method, peened dovetail bronze cheeks to to a spring steel sole(like 1018). No clue what to do for the infill since rosewood is prohibitively expensive. I might go for purple heart or something.
I'm just sharing here since I have no one in my personal life who shares this interest. Woodworking forums are stuck up so I grace you fuckers.
