| | | | | For now, at least, I'm using hand planes to shape the spars. Pretty much every how-to video you'll see on spars shows the use of a power plane (perhaps after a band saw has roughed out the shape.) Well, I don't have a power plane (although one could be had at the tool library), but I also rather like the notion of shaping these pieces by hand. Hand planes are quiet. | |

| | | | | It's been about a month since my last post, but I haven't been idle as we enter the dog days of summer. When last I reported on my progress, I'd just glued the three sections of the benchtop together. The glue-up was mostly successful, although if I had to do it over again I'd have jointed the faces that were glued. The gaps between the three sections aren't bad, but in spots they are slightly wider than the rest of the joints. | |

| | | Just a quick update before the weekend. I finished (literally and figuratively) the joined low bench (which is what I'm calling it now). Two coats of Jacobean stain and some dark paste wax. No film finish. I think it looks great. It still stinks (both the stain and the wax smell the same to me)... | ||
