Just so it’s said. The Preston- and Tyzack-style router plane is not worth any more than any Stanley or Record type and not worth as much as the Veritas or the Lie Nielsen router planes. Just saying, that’s all! They do no more than the others and in most cases they don’t actually do as…

Last week was hot for England. Hotter in France though, thankfully , and by that I mean it stopped there and didn’t hit our shores quite so hard. What’s 32 celsius in old money? 90F. It’s an easy calculation: 32C x 9/5+32=89.6F. this evening is cooling of with small clouds scudding across the skies ahead…
