Woodnetter, blogger, and hand tool woodworker Jamie Bacon passed away yesterday. He went by the screen name "baconpga", but you might know him better from his blog Plane Shavings. I never met him, but I always enjoyed reading his blog.

My condolences to his family.

Jonathan

Sad to hear the news. I do remember him posting here. Will keep his soul and his family in our prayers.
