Post: RE: Handplane from osage wood

Osage orange and Bubinga are my two favorite wood species to make woodies from. Durable, not difficult to work, and (mine, anyway) seldom need flattening.  Go for it.

That looks fantastic, Derek. Nice touch with the through tenons. IMO the shapes and colors complement the chairs very well.

Downloaded 2023 fWW archive. It won't unzip. Macbook Pro, Sonoma 14.4.1. I emailed Taunton. We'll see what they say. Has anyone run into this? Resolved it? Thanks.
