Worldway Posted January 13, 2017 #1 Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) I inherited this from my mother when she passed away. I believe at the time it was a gadget that advertised itself as a knife with its own cutting board. It has a blade on top with a plastic base. I was thinking this might be useful as a plank bending tool if you can properly control how much force you apply. I've never had a plank bending tool so I couldn't even tell you if this comes close or not.

Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea Antoine de Saint Exupery Current Builds Bluenose - Model Shipways - 1:64 Scale Fair American - Model Shipways - 1:48 Scale HMS Winchelsea 1764 - Group Build On Deck Guns of History Naval Smoothbore Deck Gun - 1:24 Scale Finished Builds Mare Nostrum - Artesania Latina - 1:35 Scale Guns of History Carronade - Model Shipways - 1:24 Scale Member of the Nautical Research Guild

jbshan Posted January 14, 2017 #3 Posted January 14, 2017 The blade and backer don't meet parallel, unless there is a cam I don't see. Your curve might go off at an angle. mtaylor, thibaultron and hornet 3 Quote Joel Sanborn http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/9953-lexington-by-jbshan-dlumberyard-164-from-the-seaways-practicum-by-clay-feldman/
Chazz Posted January 14, 2017 #4 Posted January 14, 2017 Interesting...a very similar gadget is being offered on TV right now. It's said to be useful in chopping/slicing vegetables. Chazz thibaultron and mtaylor 2 Quote
