The shellac turd has dissolved, so I started shellacking the headboard and posts.
Retweeted @HonestToddler and @echo4H just to see their soup tweets together.
These tenon shoulders aren't collinear or even parallel. Or straight, for that matter. At least there's no twist.

Low-angle spokeshaves are getting a workout today. Such a great tool.
One of the boys pulled this out of the saw till. One of Disston's less-seen offerings, albeit somewhat shortened.

Mostly talk about handtools and woodworking. My paying job is as engineer and computer nerd. Don't blame my wife and kids for what I say.
