On another note, I debate about pockets, or sawdust collectors I call them. Not sure of anything other than pencil or tape holders are worth the hassle of emptying shavings and sawdust out regularly.
7 December 2020 at 7:29 pm #689231Beautiful job Julio! I have a similar or related question as Mark. Was the original handle slot for the blade cut straight across? My blade, and many I have seen is not a straight 90° or straight finish. Mine is actually rounded and more so on the top side. So just cutting the handle slot straight thru and deep enough to allow the blade to line up with the holes would require a slot exposure on the top side of nearly two inches!
I wonder f that makes sense, and if so, any ideas how to cut the slot without leaving that kind of gap?

My thought here is, I suppose a question really, have you all looked into local woodworking clubs or guilds? Even if they are several miles away, meeting once a month you can begin to network quickly. Attending a meeting or two as a guest you will no doubt ‘connect’ with a few members who by the very nature of the club will be happy to share insight, experience and most likely shop time with a cup of coffee or perhaps a cold beer. Generally these guys and gals are just like us, some with knowledge and experience and some just learning but almost always willing to share and grow.
I guess my thought here is search diligently for a club or guild in your area.
