Huh?

I can be a pretty snowflake if I want.
Squirming…
Space Monkeys!
You broke the first rule.
Is that a #45 I spy? If so, any idea what year? I have a more modern version. Love the casting.
A metal bodied plow that spits the shaving onto your work instead of onto your hands?? Hmm…
Rare and interesting, I like the double depth stops also.
It looks like a Miller’s Patent plow, not a 45. I think they are beautiful, eapeciallt in gunmetal, but beautiful isn’t the point, is it. Hence the quote. It’s the Jungian thing, the duality of plows.
But gee. Ain’t it purty?
John,
Anyone who quotes “Full Metal Jacket” is OK by me.
It’s a Miller’s Patent No. 43.

I’m investigating metal plows some more. Some people just don’t want to spend $2,000 on a plow. Huh. These are still pricey planes, however.
Pyle, we’ve finally found something that you do well.
I’ll never afford one, but the No. 44 in gunmetal certainly does make me drool.
Apparently, Lost Art Press is selling more books than we thought. Or they have a unicorn that poops antique tools.
A little philosophical are we? I’ve seen this happen before, long, quite, uninterrupted days in the shop can cause this. May lead to dressing in togas, sitting on the floor with ones legs crossed,and chanting verse of the universal mystical hand plane. May also be brought on by frustration of using metal combination planes.

Not so much on the “decaying organic matter”, more like “Oxidizing ferric material”.
Oh, and let’s not start a movie quote showdown. I’ll lose. Badly. Again.
Shut up! I AM a beautiful snowflake.
Please tell me you also enjoy making soap!!!
Insert a “don’t” between that “also” and “enjoy”.
DOH!
Hmmm. Slow week in the shop.
This is your life.
And it’s ending one minute at a time.
