>Boy, Steve, I hope you don't regret letting that one go, once that new power tool is worn out and on the scrap heap. Still, you have to think about production before sentiment...

>I really hated selling it. But anymore I end up sanding the planes. I hate tools sitting around and not getting used it makes me feel guilty.
I have been without a jointer too long. I have used my edge sander as one and I just go through too many belts and I can't get all of the sawdust caught. Plus accuracy is hard to get with sanding belts. Once they wear a bit things start rounding.
One of these days I will have enough spare cash it will not be an issue (G)
Anyone that wants to come plane some ipe and purpleheart flat is more then welcome (G)
I have not had a power jointer for 4 years now. It slows things down and makes accuracy harder.
Though I think I have mastered the belt sander in these years (G) I was pretty thoughtful about getting a jointer. I had to face the fact that I could not do all the work making a plane by hand. I regretted that but found that�s the way it is. The repeatable accuracy and time and curves just overcame doing it with handtools.
I planed a hell of a lot of purpleheart by hand and that was never fun it is just plane work. I did make a 60 degree 5 pound coffin plane with Japanese iron to replace it.

And showed exceptionally good judgment I might add.
Explanation will be overdue, but really will be coming soon

>for such hardwoods like purpleehart and such heavy really helps. and the high angle just makes life easier. I am pretty lazy tuning my user planes so the 60 degree leaves me some leeway (G)
