Age: 35
Location: Diss, Norfolk, U.K.

Job: The porch gets yet another computer programmer
Non woodworking hobbies: Cycling, Photography.

Been accumulating a set of hand-tools for around 4 years. Primarily
at bottom-feeder prices. This means for the last 4 years I've done
a lot more metal-work than woodwork. Havn't tried electro cleaning
yet (sounds messy).

(outline list)

Stanley #3
2 x Stanley #4
Stanley #5
Marples #5 1/2
Record #7
Stanley 60 1/2

Diston D-8
Assorted braces
Even more assorted bits from spoon, reamer, Jennings ...
3 x Egg beaters
Dividers, calipers, rulers, marking knives
Marking gauges, cabinet scrapers, scraper burnisher (hardest
piece of metal I have *EVER* met)
About 30 chisels, hobbies 16" fret-saw
All second hand, all "unwell" when purchased, all happy now.

My only power tools are a DIY hand-drill, jig-saw (used about 5 times)
and a 4" angle grinder for re-grinding "outdoor" tools (Axes and stuff)

Finally starting to re-live my school-days experiences of working wood.
Am currently 18 hours into a bench you may have seen discussed in rec.ww
When I've got a bench I'll make something!
