One of the more obscure #antiquetools that I have (and use) is called a Cooper's plane.

A Cooper makes wooden casks, barrels, buckets, tubs, etc out of wooden staves.

A Cooper's plane is used to shave long pieces of wood flat so they can be joined to another piece. It has a hole near the end so it can be leaned against a wall or workbench.

The last picture shows my Cooper's plane with a few of my other planes for reference.

One of the most enjoyable #traditionalcrafts projects that I've done so far has been a #missionstyle mirror that I made while in class at the Chippendale International School of Furniture. https://chippendaleschool.com/

This project incorporated verre eglomise, #gilding, and letter #carving and pushed me further than any other project has so far.

I've also started taking the advice of other woodworkers and I pick my battles more wisely.

If a face will not be seen, it gets less attention from me than visible faces. I actually learned this from studying many antiques and how they were made. Peter Follansbee has also been an inspiration and I've learned quite a lot from his videos and website.

That is a beautiful piece of hardware. It looks a lot like the Veritas router, but the adjuster is a lot more robust.

My latest workbench is in sad shape, but it's stable and fairly flat and that's all I need for 90% of my work.

Maybe I'll flatten it and make it pretty this next year.

Great work on your benchtop! Looks like it will be a real workhorse.

My scrub doesn't get used often, but when I need it, it's priceless. What are you using for a scrub plane?

4/4 Our last move before going to Scotland was to a 750-square-foot apartment, so my workshop became the kitchen/dining area. It was here that I learned the most about working within some serious constraints.

I was able to use the back of my truck and an oak stump as my bench when the weather was ok. Otherwise, it was the kitchen.

Excellent video and I think I'll be using this on a few of my upcoming projects. I don't usually work with odd-shaped pieces like that but I have some restorations coming up that I think this will work on.

My most recent project was a #antiquefurniturerestoration of a piece of #victorianfurniture (a slant top secretaire).

https://badwolfwoodworking.com/category/projects/slanttopsecretaire-projects/

When I started, I thought it would be a pretty straightforward restore and I'd have it finished in no time. That idea went out the window as soon as I started taking the piece apart.

I ended up doing some pretty major repairs, replaced all of the hardware, and then color-matched all of the repairs.

A bit confused by all this but here goes! I post about #archaeology #experimentalarchaeology #heritageeducation #traditionalcrafts #hedgebothering and ok, #tea and #cats occasionally.

Currently finishing an experimental archaeology MSc at #exeteruni.

Err, that'll do for now, I'm sure I'll get the hang of it sometime soon.
