There is a jig called (I think) “Fair-a-Frame”. I’ve never used it but have seen it sold by various suppliers.

I’ve never used anything but needle nose pliers to change blades. Easy to do after you’ve done a few.....Allan

Thanx for posting. Great video although I wish there was audio with some info. Do you know what type of motor was used and the power source. I'm a real neophyte at this....Allan

I find changing blades on my Hegner easy. I use the fast release fixture and it works well. Like most things it takes a bit of practice but then becomes easy. Milo

Byrnes machines are fantastic. I've used other power tools for our hobby but none match Byrnes products.
In addition to some of the other comments I wish the sander had variable speed. I know there is a speed difference from the center to the outside of the disc but adjustable variable speed would be great.
I wish you could add adjustable stops on the miter gauge for the table saw. This would be a huge help when making repetitive cuts..... Milo

Guys; I'm new to the forum (and ship building) and reading this great thread in 2016. I'm currently building the Ranger. Are there any new tips on tying and which glue to use? My knots are terrible and I must confess that I use ca for glue (because it is fast). Any suggestions or updates! Thanx.....Milo

I'm beginning the rigging on the Ranger. I've lost the instructions and hope someone can tell me what rope size should be used for the shrouds and the corresponding size for the seizing. Thank you.....Milo

I'm considering building the Constructo Louise Steam Launch but I've never built a Constructo brand kit before. Can anyone offer any info on the quality (or lack of) of Constructo kits and/or the Louise Steam Launch in particular? Thank you......Milo

Matt; I recently moved and in the move I lost my construction book for the ranger. I've finished about half the build and now I'm ready to finish the masts and then get into the rigging. Is there any chance you could copy the final pages of the book that will help me complete the project? I will gladly pay any associated costs.
Your build is great I've just gotten back into ship building and nobody would ever confuse your model with mine. The build is great!!!!.....Miloman

Thanx for sharing Bob. Great video (that led to a few other neat videos). There’s a gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico called Tai. It features Japanese baskets exclusively. They are awesome.....actually unbelievable.
Again, thanx for sharing.....Allan
