Plane Identification for End Grain Work
I don't know if it's specifically used for end grain, but he's using it, I have my own preferences in my own collection, but I am curious about this specialty plane. Can anyone identify this hand plane for me? I started the video at the point where Doucette is using it, I looked on Lie Nielsen's website as Doucette uses mainly LN tools, but I could not find it. Thanks for any help and another view here:

Friday November 25th 2022-What's on Your Weekend Agenda?
Friday the day after Thanksgiving Folks, is anybody else moving slow today? The wife and I went to the stepsons for the feast, and we're both overstuffed. Wife just asked if I want anything for breakfast. Here "Two Weeks From Anywhere" it's the ongoing battle with getting the GM Tech2 configured properly. I Found a little over 2 1/2 hour training video I'll try watching today, hopefully it explains what the manuals/guides don't. So, What's on Your
Refinishing
I wrote asking about sanding old darkened finished wood and lighting it up by sanding. Does it work? This snake is about 15 years old and I sanded it for quite a while. I’d say I got it about 20% lighter. This was a 30 inch piece of walnut that I saw in an Amish company lumber in Ohio. I immediately saw the snake hidden in that grain and had to buy it

Table saw made dovetail joinery for a drawer
Danl posted a topic in General Woodworking,
I thought I would try making TS cut dovetails. I used a special grind (10-deg) TS blade, an Incra HD 1000 miter gauge, and a flush trim router bit. I made a sled which attached to my miter gauge. Using a marking gauge, I laid out the tail height on a sacrificial board a smidge higher than the material thickness, tilt my TS blade 10-deg, and raised the blade to the desired height. I ganged my L/R drawer side boards and cut the tails simultaneous.-
