Unless you happen to be into barrel making....bad form if a stave runs into the ground....
Show me a picture, I'll build a project from that

For very small pieces a smoothing plane in the vise works fine.

Agreed.  I don't know what I was thinking.  I added a correction to my post.  This is what I get for posting while multi-tasking.

Multitasking is a myth.

Dave Arbuckle was kind enough to create a Sketchup model of my WorkMate benchtop: http://www.arbolloco.com/sketchup/MauleSkinnerBenchtop.skp

Biggest thing I need to do is finish up my bench and put my vises on it!!!!  Then shaving some small parts would be so much easier.

I have had my daughter and her husband and 4 grandchildren here for the last 4 days and a lot of really small scraps I was going to throw away was put into use with 1x10s I had sitting around for other things to make.

All I can say is 3 little girls and my oldest grandson had me sawing, dying, sanding, and gluing up I ever did.  All I can say is WOW and I am glad I am done with it today.  My oldest granddaughter will have to leave hers here so we can finish it up later when she comes back.
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification.  Thank You Everyone.

It is always the right time, to do the right thing.
