Yea, yea, yea, so you built a beautiful plane all by your little lonesome. Why don't you really impress us by showing the shavings? Then you might deserve a pat on the back.

He has many times and that is why we are in awe over what he makes.  Whisper thin shavings such a beautiful sight
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification.  Thank You Everyone.

It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

You've really achieved a unity and simplicity of design in this one. It's still recognizably your design and your work, but I think I like the look of this plane better than anything I've seen you make before.

This is coming from a guy whose design preferences are something between Shaker and Amish, so you probably shouldn't take my aesthetic assessment of your work very seriously. But I DO like the look of this plane a lot.
