Jaager got a reaction from Canute in Tools For Modeling
My latest acquisition in Japanese mini saws is this one from StewMac:
Japanese Curved-edge Mini Saw
Item # 3612
I am able to do fairly close cross cuts with it with less effort than straight edged saws.

Jaager got a reaction from Canute in How to maintenance Byrnes table saw
I was not aware of the oil application. So, no, I am not doing this. I will, when I get to the stage where I need to use the table saw. POF framing does not involve any jobs that require the product of a table saw.
At least the way I do it does not. That is where I am at present. If the ship that I am presently framing needed deadwood, I would need it for that.

Jaager got a reaction from Canute in Switch - controller
Where I have my drill press ( a jewelers size )- there is just wood flour on the floor. The bigger stuff is in the garage. I do keep track of all of the quilters pins, so that I do not find them with my feet.

Jaager got a reaction from Canute in Switch - controller
I use a foot switch with my drill press.
Harbor Freight has two types:
Momentary - apply pressure = ON - raise foot = OFF
Maintained - apply pressure = ON - raise foot = stays ON - apply pressure = OFF...... Click - ON / click - OFF
Plug either into the house wiring. Plug the machine into it.
Fix the switch to a board that is long enough for your heel to rest on.
I use the momentary switch. I am bare foot in Summer and sock foot in Winter and just pressure from my big toe is enough.
For the type tools that we use, a separate inline dial control to vary the power is better than using a variable pressure foot switch. The cramping from the abnormal foot action would be adverse enough.

Jaager got a reaction from thibaultron in What brand of #11 blades do you use
Following suggestions from here, I am now experimenting with violin-makers knives
for the jobs that these disposable blades do. Not enough experience with this yet.

3 in 1 type oil or go to a pharmacy and get a bottle of Mineral Oil lubricant.

Jaager got a reaction from FriedClams in Swallow 1779 by tlevine - FINISHED - 1:48 scale
Have you looked at the ANCRE monograph for Le Cerf 1779? It is also a cutter and clinker. The different construction for it is that the frames notched. The upper edges of the planks are thicker - the lands are mostly cut into the frames.
Buenas suerte and buena fortuna on the clinker planking. I think it is significantly more difficult to do well than carvel.
