Not sure how much fun it is..but, I did set the plane up as a sash cutter plane the other day..
So, after re-sawing some pine blanks, and using a plane to surface it S4S, gave the plane a try-out

And came up with this profile. I ran the plane down both edges. Currently building a frame and panel sided Chest of Drawers, so I needed to mold some rails/stiles, and get them ready to go into some corner posts. I cut a tenon of sorts on each end, after figuring out how long the piece needed to be..

So, NOW I have the first one about done. need a few more done, and the edges of the corner posts as well. may have to hone the cutter a few times. I have been using the Mitre Box to cut the blanks to length

Stanley #358......either this is a HUGE saw, or else I have a very small bench. Anyway, I have four more blanks to get planed and molded..

BTW: I also needed to go out and BUY a new camera, and now I get to learn how to use it. Now just need some time to run a plane or three, around. Need to get that big saw OFF my bench, first.
May post more as i get things down. I even did a very rare thing for me...I actually drew a Plan up to help build this "dresser"......scary...

I do not know if the guys here know but you do all of your work is with hand tools and a lot of things at that to. Maybe you can show some of your projects you have done over the last year bandit.
