911 kdunn@d... (Karl Dunn) 1996‑06‑12 Newbie Intro
My brothers and sisters, I have sinned. In the wreckless pursuit of
horsepower and voltage I have abandoned the principles of my father and my
father's father (and my father's father's father...).

My morticing chisels have gone rusty, the Delta HCM saw to that.
My brace has been unoiled, the Dewalt 14.4 is to blame...but is it? No I
think not. It is I.

Most of my best planes have been loaned to friends and never seen again. At
the time, I didn't care, but now I weep. All I have left is a old Bailey
block plane, an old Stanley #4 and an old(?) Craftsman repro of a Stanley
#45 (made by who?). 

If there is room on the porch for another, I'd like to be the Luke to your
Yoda! Teach me. Mold me. Plane thin shavings from my brow. I deserve it.
