Testing my new blogger widget.

At work, we had "plane days" when we had all of our hand planes out with pieces of wood to test them out on. This creates a rather large problem for me. Firstly, I now have a very strong desire to do woodworking on the non-powered level. There are a lot of things in luthiery that can be done with hand tools, but I kind if like the idea of building some kind of boxes. Maybe amp and effect chassis. Anyway, the second thing. Our planes are not cheap, they're not cheap in construction (they're beautiful) and they're not easy on the pocket book. So, I have to think of a project that will give me the opportunity to use hand planes and therefore give me the excuse to buy some nice ones. Sneaky huh?
