The only razz I can give is to ask you why isn't it a bronze one. ;-)<br /><br />I've got a hot dog for my no62 and it works well -- making shooting much easier. I had to file some in the hot dog's slot to get it to fit my no62. But, as improved as my no62 is I still want a no9 for shooting.woodgeekhttp://openid.net/woodgeeknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702992912065040751.post-58826355550662584992008-03-19T13:01:00.000-04:002008-03-19T13:01:00.000-04:0012 steps?

Set up a no-fee checking account (w/free debit card) in a bank other than the one you normally use.<BR/>2. Set up your direct deposit pay check to automatically put $50 a month into your new checking account.<BR/>3. Complain to wife about socialist government programs as you rant and rave over the additional $50 a month being taken out of your paycheck!<BR/>4. Patiently wait the required number of months for your balance to equal the purchase price of desired plane.<BR/>5. Contact Tom and use said debit card to complete purchase.<BR/>6. Call Tom back to remind him to ship it to your work address.<BR/>7. Quietly integrate new "family member" by mixing them in with the other planes.<BR/>8. Work on the line, "New plane? Nyaaaah, I've had that one for a while now, sweetie."<BR/><BR/>(My RL situation is only slightly different - she knows I have this system in place. Hey, she has her fun money and I have my fun money. We're both happy and it is all accounted for in our monthly budget.Ethanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10762615024207105680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702992912065040751.post-29162361877539652562008-02-26T22:07:00.000-05:002008-02-26T22:07:00.000-05:00Jeff,GEEZ I thought I had a problem, but 15 means ...Jeff,<BR/><BR/>GEEZ I thought I had a problem, but 15 means that there is someone worse than me out there...<BR/><BR/>Come on share the list!<BR/><BR/>I have some Limited Edition #1 envy, but I do have the 4.5Bronze and the LV SS plane. Yes I have a soft spot for Limited Editions<BR/><BR/>Which saws and screw drivers do you have?Chris in MDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04238849104045924793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702992912065040751.post-49811474984042613522008-02-26T08:47:00.000-05:002008-02-26T08:47:00.000-05:00Jeff, Really enjoy your blog.

I hope it works out (both for your sake and for Tom's...)<BR/><BR/>I have about 15 Lie-Nielsen planes. I also have Lie-Nielsen saws, chisels, screw drivers, spoke shaves, the apron, hat, T-shirts, and just about every DVD they have ever made. <BR/><BR/>Also, I have had a Lie-Nielsen workbench on order since last May. <BR/><BR/>I even have one of the Ken Wisner #95 planes (the guy/plane TLN bought out back in 1981.)<BR/><BR/>Watch for a blog post in the next few days on my latest Lie-Nielsen plane that is currently headed my way...<BR/><BR/>Luckily for my bank account...my full blown (no holds barred) obsession is only with Lie-Nielsen. The Bridge City obsession only extends to Layout Tools...so far. I have fought off the temptation of the HP-6v2 for months. As soon as I cave in to that one my wife will have to start delivering pizzas, pumping gas, or working at a liquor store all night long...<BR/><BR/>Oh...and I like Festool, too. I really need to find a 12 step program.Jeff Skiverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05193511181361305951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702992912065040751.post-52426248525564835922008-02-25T21:32:00.000-05:002008-02-25T21:32:00.000-05:00OK I have to ask, how many LN planes do you have? ...OK I have to ask, how many LN planes do you have? Just from your blog I know you have a white bronze #1, a #8 (a valentines gift at the office), and now a number 9 miter plane. <BR/><BR/>I myself just purchased the hotdog for my #62. I need to fiddle with it as it seems cramped under the cheek with the iron cap...<BR/><BR/>If it doesnt work out, then it goes back to LN and then I might consider parting with more cash for the #9.Chris in MDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04238849104045924793noreply@blogger.com
