Click on the above image for the link to their site. Here is Gerald's original post- @Gerald posted this in the General Woodworking Forum but since many of our turners do craft shows, we thought it might be of interest here. What’s Coming Up- One last time! For The Newbies- Woodworker's Journal has posted another video, by Ernie Conover, comparing carbide and traditional turning tools. Sometime back, we included an earlier video on the same topic by Mr. Conover. Not sure what changed, but, Mr. Conover seems to have a little more positive opinion on the carbide tools in this video.

In the process of building that box....had a bunch of resets on the Stanley #45 to do....mainly changing where the fence will be, and whether short or long rods were to be used....decided to make some things a bit..easier to do To change those rods...there are 4 thumbscrews to loosen, and tighten back up, with one too close the the handle area. They all needed a pair of needle nosed pliers to get them to ...move...look right under the wheel to adjust the depth of cut....so... I retired these two (FIRED!) and stashed them away...had a pair of slotted bolts to replace them....instead of pliers, I can just... Use something like this....like on the rest of the plane....which leaves these two... I don't have any to replace these two, they are a lot longer, and have pointed end. About all I could do was pull them both out, clean the crud in the threads, give the threads a drop (a SMALL one) of 3in1 oil, and run them back in....they work a little better,,,still need pliers, but these are easier to get to. Issue came up with the #12 cutter I had been using for 1/4" wide grooves....when I tried to level the grooves bottom with the router plane...the new Veritas 1/4" cutter would not fit in the 1/4" groove.. Measured the with of the Veritas...0.252"....the #12? 0.249" wide....could be a problem? Dug out the other 1/4" sized cutter I have for the #45 plane.. Only marking is a "T"...measured it....0.251" wide. needed a bit of sharpening, bevel was rounded a bit, back needed flattened....then, while the stones were handy, worked on the Veritas as well, had a chip-out in the edge. I also stoned both sides of the cutter to match the 0.251" reading I need.. "New" cutter in the #45 plane, and a fresh groove made....then tried the router plane for size... need a bit of wax, but it did slide right along...Router is set up like this, so it can travel along the jig. Went back to "normal setting" later.. When I had a bit more"elbow room".... Now I have to go shopping for fence bolts.....may just chase the threads and use NEW thumbscrews....IF I can point the edges to match Stanley's bolts.

I got this stuff in a machinist tool box many years ago. Some parts kinda look like center rest riders. But the little round rollers might be some kinds of cutters? Any ideas?

In response to a few questions about that little plane....Last spring I went to a little get together down in Vicksburg,MS. Wound up bringing home a Type 20 Stanley 45. Made in Roxton Pond,QUE, Canada. The box Miss Doe mailed it in contained the plane in it's own wooden case. twas a wee bit rusty. The USPS seemed to have tossed the package around on it's way to MS. William tried to repair the damage to the wooden case.....was a bit too far gone. Miss Doe said the plane was mine, as long as I brought it back to life. I even might a new case for it, and cleaned the rustiness away...a before? Yeah... So, I set out to copy this box based on the old cracked and broken thing.. Got fairly close. The insides matched what Stanley had placed in there. I couldn't find the right latch, though. I guess this will just have to do When I made new labels...I messed up. The ones I copied were for the New Britain Stanleys. Old Box had the Roxton Pond label. Compare with the old label. Ok time to open this box up? Tight fit in there. I have to tear it down to get it all back in the box. I did go out and buy a depth stop for the slitter.... But the other two stops came with the plane. So, what is all the stuff below this? The screwdriver is a millers Falls, closest I could get to a Stanley one. Extra cutters, both the long and short rods. If you look up near the end of the screwdriver, there is a very small cutter, so small you use only the main body with it. I think it is a 1/8" cutter? Get some of the this stuff out of the way.. A spare nicker. That pointy cutter is the so-called slitter. And the cutter I modified. Speaking of cutters.. As in the oEM box, there are two rows of cutters. Set into dados into the sides of the box. The BIG wide cutter is to make sash parts for a window. A better look at the cutters? Back row is all straight edged cutters. Front row is the "bead" cutters, that sash cutter, and two match cutters ( 3/16" and 1/4")...... This is one heavy box....I bought the wood and hardware for the box, the extra cutters as well. Most of the rest came from Vicksburg. Not too bad a deal?
