    Eaglewood's Tools

    New to you

    Hi,
    I am a retired engineering tech. I design and fab. Hand planes in my tiny machine shop. I do a lot f woodworking as well as machining and get the most enjoyment from making a tool to get a job done or cheat a retailer. Sometimes it costs more but the satisfaction can't be priced. Forthright years ago I was a toolmaker apprentice,so I guess that never wore off.
    Looking forward to learning from you guys.
    Dick

    You'll fit in well here with that outlook.

    What are you thinking of building next?
