Huge thank you to Ernie !!!

>I've had an off-line week, thanks to a spilled drink, but I finally got a new keyboard (schedule was full too).
I am very thankful to Ernie for his generous gift of a two-blade spokeshave. I installed the nice and sharp blades, and promptly crafted another wooden spoon.
I still need to do a bit more work on it, but it was so nice to hear the shavings come off of the handle. Ernie, look for an envelope sometime next week! THanks again!
PS, my shop partner says Instead of retrofitting my workbench with a vise, I need to build a new hand-tools bench. Hmmmm He may be onto something...
