I liked his rip fence.
My Japanese is a little rusty, but I'm pretty sure that "what he said" included "we don't need no steenking riving knife, fence, biscuits, jointer, clamps (not always, anyway) or even a workbench.
Apparently at least one man in Japan uses his planes to make furniture, not just 8 micron ribbon shavings.
Heh! He spreads glue the same way I do :)
Neat way to straighten out a board too. Arigato.
Wow. Leather strapping as a band clamp. Tucked that one away in the old brain, I did.
I am betting if you dampen the leather it will tighten as it dries.
I couldn't tell what he says... :) ]
