I have been asked about the Bow Sanders I was using in the Wooden Block Plane Post. I went back and found the tutorial I did on another forum an 2016. Quote:(2016) This year I made all the members of the woodworking group a bow sander for the spirit of the holidays. I will let the pictures tell the story. they were made from maple and an old poplar plank I had laying around. the first picture is what was left of the plank. The sandingbelts were from WoodWorkers Supply, Kingspor. Herb

Rather than keep going on a too long of a post, maybe a "part 3" would work better? Box was set free of the clamps.....needed a bit of clean up Yeah...gaps, pins sticking up....Ve haft vays.... The #3 plane needed sharpened, good thing I have others on standby... A little "detail work" with the 60-1/2, mainly the edges and the pins. Top edges needed a little bit, too.. Looking a bit better.

Well, lots of problems to fight through today. Door has been fine tuned to fit it's new home. Involved a lot of handplane work, I centered the panel to get rid of the gaps, then pinned it place. Was going to use the router to edge the sides and top with.....Could not get that #$@#$ collar out of the fixed base. Ok, we have ways.... Since I had bought this as a kit, I had a plunge base with it. Look right below the left handle, there are two plugs there. Matched the grain exactly between the plugs and the spot where they went. Pared off flat, sanded smooth( dried glue is a bear
