Thu, Jul 29, 2004, 9:39am snipped-for-privacy@clemnet.org (Richard=A0Clements) wonders: I looked over Steve's site and I didn't see any Rabbit planes, dose anybody know if he makes them?
You might ask Steve, he would probably know if he does or not.

I went to the site last night....still no infill planes??? :-( There's got to be a good machinist around there somewhere....not that I can afford that Japanese style infill yet, but it's nice knowing I could get one if I had the money right now... :-) But, I may finally be able to get a dovetail plane next month. :-)
Looks like the long, hot summer is getting to EVERYONE. WIthout jumping too far into the flame war...I glanced at the ad, and, my first thought was "great...still can't afford them (heavy sigh)". My first thought was NOT "How DARE he post a small notice about fine woodworking tools to a forum devoted to working wood!" Let's all take a chill pill, kick back with a tall, cool drink, and just move on. The posting was small, within the guidelines of commercial postings, and as others have pointed out, Knight has been a good contributor to the group for a long time. I for one have enjoyed hearing of his success in a niche field...and do think he makes some really great tools, tools that combine utility and beauty. Regards Dave Mundt
Me of all people? Where are you going with _that_, Jay? Might this have something to do with the email filtering service that I subscribe to?
Apparently, Mr. Knight's ratio is beyond that, by the looks of the group. Someone's analysis showed his ratio is 50:1 or 500:1 or something. Not a lot of people are 50 parts signal to 1 part noise.
It's a humerous reference to a line used in a movie, inserted to keep things to get too heavy.
Right.
Apparently your personal opinion is counter to the group concensus here.
Which "him"? You can killfile anyone you want, that's the beauty of a well-written newsreading app.
By the way, have you read the rec.woodworking charter, specifically how advertisements are handled in that document?
The person I forwarded your message to expressed concern about your name apparently changing. I'm guessing from your question that he chose not to contact you, although I have noticed that it's not unusual for Norwegians to have a much more casual attitude about speedy responses. I don't feel that it's appropriate to rush him, so I won't be.
