A big thanks to Bill Barnfield

Thanks to Bill’s excellent how to I was finally able to shape a whole board using only my planer, and it turned out excellent! I knew the theory of how to do rail bands, but it never really clicked until he showed me. Using a planer properly is really better than just whitling away at it. THANKS!

yep

thats one of my favourite threads

that and plusones websight that show rail bands

It was the thread with Barnfield’s commentary on the shaping video that did the same thing for me.

Your Welcome Dan

Glad I could help
