Hi All,

I knew I was due a trip past so why not!!

Thought I would compare the chisels against the Sorby version...and try the oil finish:thinks:
I didn't get away too lightly, because as I was leaving this little lot caught my eye in the clearance box IMG_20220809_120303.jpg a little over £14 which I didn't think too bad...

Axi is quite close for me so it's always dangerous but looks like you got away lightly, the bigger problem is we like going on breaks down to Devon & Cornwall.... this takes me far to close to Yandles and that wood yard.....:drool:

Can't take you anywhere. I am just as bad even when doing online shopping as to make it worth while for what postage costs I tend to buy more than I need but at least most of it I will need at some point in the future. Just remember when you go to Belmount House this year there is a guy selling some top class turning:funny::funny::funny: good looking too.

Axminster have always attended even if it is just a small gazebo
