Evening everyone,
For anyone who might be interested here is a picture of progress on the shed so far.
I’m hoping to board the roof with OSB tomorrow but does anyone have any suggestions for a roofing material?Attachments:
You must be logged in to view attached files.I’ve taken delivery of my new (old) planes and decided to go with record in numbers 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5
Unfortunately the number 5 has one wrong screw, the front screw on the rear tote is too small and I’m wandering if anybody knows where I might be able to find the correct replacementJohn, you mentioned the extra weight of the modern planes and also the fact the thicker irons that make them more work to keep sharp (unless you hollow grind) which were probably my main two concerns so I think I will take your advice and build myself a set of quality older Stanley or record planes and perhaps add the Veritas LAJ and LAS as a bit of a treat in future. Thanks for your inputs so far guys
I’m really interested in this as I too am about to start building a slightly modified hope chest for my girlfriend. What sort of size are you planning on making yours?
I’ve been charged with making an ottoman so thought I could adapt this design to suit but it will be 56 inches in width compared to 35 with the original, it will need to hold quite a bit of weight and the lid will also need to double as a seat and I am a little concerned that it wont be strong enough! Just wandering if anybody would have any thoughts on this? -
