Dave,
I've noticed a curious thing. If I'm not logged on the images in the article don't show.
Another thing is Shape Bender.
I followed the link and, for the life of me, can't download it.
Where's the download link?
By the way, nice tut.
That infeed support wouldn't hold for a second if it was needed for support of a sheet of plywood.
Either it should be supported by a leg or it should be eliminated, because the whole extension rig could be popped off the rip fence in a heart beat without it.
I prefer to break 4x8 sheets down with a guided circular saw.
Dave,
Thanks for this video demonstration. When I originally installed shape bender much difficulty was experienced. Your step by step demo got me going on the right track.
I heartily endorse your view, continuous use of SketchUp is essential. I learned to use SU, after a fashion, by watching the many video demonstrations available online, and through everyday practice. The demonstrations helped a lot, but without the daily practice I would never have achieved the abilities that I did.
I add this, without contributors like you and Dave, I would be stuck at a much lower level.
However, complications in my life kept me from using SU for a while, and I found myself struggling.
Yes, one must continue to keep the skills learned at a fine hone!
Regards,
Don

Re: Shop made grooving planes
Matt said: "but what in particular would you like to know about them?"
posted: 6:47 am on November 4thEverything!
Materials dimensions, sources, video demonstration of the steps in building, - EVERYTHING!
Matt said:"They weren't hard to make. I basically used the Krenov method and it only took me about 1 hour to get the pair done."
What's the Krenov method? I don't know what that is.
These are neat planes and it would be great to know more about them.
Did you make one to do the drawer bottom groove and the other to make a rabbet on the edge? I sort of looks like that in the photo.
So much to learn! So little time!
Best regards,
