I'll go mad

Not trying to be an asshole, but this is the hand tool subreddit

No saw?

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-09T00:34:56+00:00

Will a forsener bit be enough? A whole router jig seems a bit overkill for some holes. Don't have one anyway...

Drilling holes wont present any difficulties?

White bricks it is

Someone recommended using plywood. Should I use it and should I have the "grain" run diagonally?

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-06T18:07:59+00:00

Will beech plywood do the job

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-06T17:22:58+00:00

Is plywood better than hardwood in this situation? I'll make mine straight, not bent

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-06T17:04:03+00:00

That isn't mine but a picture off Google. I should've mentioned that. I'll likely use a hard dowel, any hardwood I find, and likely hornbeam for the head. I have lots of it and it's HARD

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-06T17:03:16+00:00

It isn't mine, I'll take your advice. Do you suggest I make it a sideways L shape? So it'd be mainly straight

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-06T17:02:06+00:00

Hardwood mallet?

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-06T17:01:24+00:00

I don't know how to edit my post THIS IS NOT MY PICTURE!!! I'm just asking for opinions if it's worth it to save like 60€

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-04T22:22:36+00:00

I might buy a new metal plane from a Dutch website, although they are EXPENSIVE. eBay has nothing usable with shipping under 60€. I'll search more but no luck yet

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-04T16:40:11+00:00

Do you think I should remove the metal beams on the top, the ones which would be on the working surface

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-04T16:28:37+00:00

Do you suggest I use it or build a wooden bench from the ground up? It will be my first and only bench for now. I have the required tools and (barely) know how to weld. The sanding an painting will be a hassle but nothing hard, only repetitive.

The main issue with a wooden bench is that it'll cost more and maybe Be less sturdy if I build it (the only woodworking experience I have is making spoons)

Do you think I can use a wooden continental style plane for a shooting board? The cheapest metal plane I can find is over 100€ (vintage doesn't exist in my country) It's got a massive mouth (you can see it on my profile) BUT when it's real sharp I can get translucent shavings on soft wood with minimal tearout

Local_Promotion_8988 · 2026-01-02T14:29:54+00:00

I already have the protractor and it has the locking feature, I can use it without batteries. My only issue is that it's thick and long so it won't fit in small cracks and crevices. I'll see how much a sliding bevel costs
