Well, I have a "chute-ing  Board"  to refine sawn edges with.    Made from a scrap of 2x6, and a couple hardwood cleats.    Wasn't quite set up right.  Took a jack plane to the flat area where the parts sit

Then put the jig in the vise on edge.   Time for the Wards #78 rebate plane.   Had to remove the fence, and the depth stop.   Worked on both faces of the rebate, to get them at a 90 degree corner

But the stop was getting in the way.  Took the screws out, and removed the stop.   It's rebate was a bit out of whack, too.   A Saw, a chisel and the 78 brought it back to square to the jig and almost flat

Re-installed the stop in the jig, a little "fine tuning" with a hammer.   Hmmm, sticks out into the track.   Grinder made that go away.  Time to try things out?

A Sargent #3416 Trans. Jack and someone's ham-fisted hand.  Couple of c clamps to hold things in place.   Not too bad, just a simple little jig

Anyone can make one.  Just have to pay attention to a few angles..

You make it look so easy!

Love the way you work. You make it look easy and graceful. Thanks for sharing.

YOU MASONS GOT ROCKS IN YOUR HEAD STEVE!!!!!!  IT'S CALLED A SHOOTING BOARD, LOL.

 

I remember those days Steve, lol.  I think mine is still in storage!!

 

I'm surprised you didn't incorporate it so your bench dogs would hold the piece and you could just dowel pin/tight fit it to the bench.

Ah, but it is a Chute-ing board.   Apparently that comes from the track the plane rides on, as in a chute.  

 

Just as Moxxon doesn't call out Jointer Planes, he names them as Glue-ing planes,   as in the prepare an edge for glue ups into a panel. 

 

Wasn't a mason, but I was one of them "Mud Guys".   Seems we were always working in some mud hole.    Doesn't help when we call the wet concrete .....Mud. 

 

I could still run a concrete crew, but, too old to get down in the stuff.   Sceeding is OUT of the question.  Same goes for rod-busting, back can't take the bending over all day to tie bars.
