Adam,

What fun!  It must have been so satisfying to use old hand tools for all of
these operations. Thanks for the great photos and descriptions. What parts gave
you the most satisfaction?

Well done indeed!

John Johnston

Your total dedication to hand tools is impressive - resawing a board that must
be 12-14" wide is beyond what all but just a few might do.  Did you have someone
on the other end of that saw?  Well done in all aspects.
