The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

Still need to epoxy the brass piece to the wood and apply a finish to it but other wise it is done and I'm happy with it. Most proud of myself for making the blade myself.

Nice work brother. Looks good.

Ok, I’m dumb. What does it do, how is it used?

Loosen the set screw and adjust it for the depth of say the tails on dovetail joints. Tighten back up then you can scribs a line on you piece of wood. Better than a pencil as it gives an actual groove for your chisel to rest in when doing the final clean up with a chisel.

Thank you. Makes sense now.

I am a slow builder. I can only work on a plane a few hours a week.

That is ok as it seems to be the norm here at GSN. But no matter any progress deserves to be shown off, and we love to see it.
