Tools and Shop for Pattern Fliers
I'm going to be setting up an area in my house for assembling, adjusting, and repairing planes. I don't really have the right tools and jigs, so was wondering what you guys use so I could make a list. So far my biggest challenge has been epoxying the stab of my planes; I've been using masking tape, a speed square, and a tape measure. I imagine you guys have some pretty great tricks or advice for this kind of stuff.
As a former tradesman I believe in having the right tools for the job, and a pattern ship needs to be pretty close to perfection, so let me know if you have any ideas.
Also post pics of your shop setup if you wish, I'd love to get some ideas there, too.
Thanks,
Joe
