simply hand planed, no flats no sanding

Looking really good.

Those planes must be fine tuned.

I know you've said it before, what's that blue dye called?

Ta. Must be easier to see planing lines with that, I like the idea.

What are you looking to achieve by taking them on the table at this stage without splicing etc?

to see if they hit well before investing more time and money

How much does it change after splicing? Just never seen anyone hit them at this stage.

Not saying it's not standard to do this but interested to know differences in the hit as you add splices and weights etc

working on ferrule sizes, depths and walls

working on ferrule sizes, depths and walls

I wonder if there's a range of standard shots and test you could do and record against each ferrule height and wall thickness to look at the variances........would be interesting to see how they differ.

See how easy I found lots of work for someone else, I have a gift for it.................don't expect the response to be good!

Nice work though.
