Tough man

[Wongo]

When a good piece of wood is about to hit the ground, what do you do?

[DavidG]

Good catch.
Is the wood Ok.

[E. maculata]

WTG that's my sorta trick, save the timber at any cost, reaction over rational thought. :eek:

[Wood Borer]

Scott,

You need to sharpen your chisels and planes - too much hair on your arm. Perhaps you have a new method of testing for sharpness.

[Harry72]

too much hair on your arm.

Ha ha Wongo wears his shoe's on his hands!

Scott,

You need to sharpen your chisels and planes -

...but don't drop them!

[MajorPanic]

I try hard not to do that when I'm working with my scalpel, I've almost done it twice - put yer foot out to break the fall.

Then you have a little think to yerself - "That was close -DUCKHEAD!!"

[DanP]

"That was close -DUCKHEAD!!"

Didn't know you were a kiwi, Major.

.... I've almost done it twice - put yer foot out to break the fall....

Ya missed that time Dan... The K1W1's put sheyet on us about wearing thongs 'cos we can't do up our shoe laces..... the Major doen't wear any shoes at all..... :eek:


BTW, Wongo, it missed ya vital organ, get back on ya head, sook.

[barnsey]

Don't ya hate that - stickin ya foot out to save the edge on the freshly hone skew you just ground

The 2" register chisel was the worst :eek:

I hate it when I get a dose of the dropsy's

[zenwood]

G'day,

Just last week I did the same thing when mounting some layouts for a client. The scalpel dropped to the Tassie Oak floor and as always when dropping something I put my foot out to stop what is normally a glass or plate from breaking, luckily I stopped the scalpel, even more lucky was the blade was pointing up when my foot made contact. :eek:

[Gingermick]

what are you doing dropping good bits of wood anyway?
