Haven't tried the frazz but the other three are solid. What kind of sound are you looking for?

I need to pick up a few more planes.. too bad jointer planes cost so much :grumpy: lets see.. I got a 100 year old Charles Buck 1 7/8" gouge and a 1/8" Buck Bros mortise chisel yesterday in really good condition.. I also got a baseball bat and recarved it into a slick handle… yep we need a thread :lol:

Start it! You could always make a joiner plane. Just need a good iron.

Tools are top GAS for me. Really glad I got my table saw last week too

I totally agree on that. Hand tools actually make a better finish. I just have to rip like 220 board feet of sapele into 4 an 2 inch strips.

I just picked up two Stanley 45 combo planes (one from 1890-1910 and the other from like 1920). I have three of those now but very few irons for them. I'm gonna go check eBay now. Got the two new ones for under 20 cause the dude didn't know what they were (sold them as one plane). I have a super rare 1890 Stanley chisel/rabbet plane and another really old and rare Stanley skew chisel I got from a museum of tools. Both work great. I also have a bailey I think 5. Those are cheaper if you get a corrugated bottom [perception of fragility makes the price fall].

Have a few scrapers too.

Go for the soft/hard steel Japanese chisels. I'm not the biggest fan of my German ones. The just don't edge well to me.

Oh! You can make awesome beading planes with band saw blades as the cutter and a split piece of wood as the holder.

What a beautiful looking pedal. I really like it on less extreme settings, but it's too metallicy and overly reverb tankish on higher bright settings and waaaay too boomy on the cavernous/dark ones. But bright verb with gain and verb set to about noon is lovely (so, pretty much like how it's set in the picture). Actually, that's one of the best reverb sounds I've ever heard. Seems promising as a stack verb. Will find out over the weekend. :animal:
