Just a reminder--check the surfaces before you use them.

Found that one of mine had a big metal blob in the middle of one of the
flats. Unfortunately I found it by knocking a big divot into a nice
piece
of quina.


Thanks for the heads up, but I always use some 1/8" hard boards scraps to
protect the workpeice....


One of mine had the defect also, I filed it down, but I also always use
scraps to shield the work piece as well. Thanks for the heads up!
