Hi Folks,

Mine arrived this morning. Imagine having a tool arrive in New Zealand
before it gets to most of the people on rec.ww!

I have used the honing guide to sharpen exactly one plane iron. Maybe
next weekend I'll have time to use it on a chisel or two.

It is head and shoulders above the old Veritas guide which I have had
for many years and always hated. The setup is easy and doesn't require
any fiddling. You set the stop, insert the blade, remove the stop and
get to work.

The blade stays square to the roller and centered (left/right).
So far, so good.

Cheers,

Larry
