We just received a pallet with the special edition of the T-8 from Tormek that was released at the beginning of April. Tormek is celebrating 50 years since its founding and has made an updated T-8, which is delivered with a diamond wheel and a composite honing wheel. It has a smart black look and is a perfect complement to your sharpening station if you already have a Tormek. Of course it can also be bought as your first machine.
Worth keeping in mind: the SE-77 honing jig is not included with the T-8 Black, as it is with the T-8 Original, so it needs to be added if you don't already have it. See Tormek's whole range on our Tormek pages. Watch the video on YouTube
Another black beauty that has arrived is the new little plow plane from Veritas, the Box-Maker's Plow Plane. It comes in a right and a left version, just like its big sibling. We are getting a small special shipment of a few, and more will come with the regular delivery later in May. We will show what it can do at our Open House on 29/4. We have two good friends, the fine woodworkers Paul Engel (#palleengel) and Pär Hansen (#malaromobelsnickeri), who will show and tell how they use tools and how they finish their projects.
We are constantly working to make the webshop better, clearer and easier to use. We clean up among the categories and make new ones if it makes it clearer which products we have. A new one is the combination squares; they used to lie together with ordinary squares and the blades lay with the rules, and now they get a category of their own instead.
We have also fixed up our Woodworking Bookshop; it has got new categories and is being filled with books, and we bring in new Swedish books as soon as we see they have come out. A new Swedish book for the younger woodworkers is coming shortly. Perfect for the summer together with children or grandchildren. Do look through the Swedish section for some more summer reading.
Build together! Here are 21 easy-to-build projects with clear drawings and step-by-step pictures. Many projects are so simple that the children can manage them themselves. Make your own swing, build a bed for the soft toys, make a toy box, a garage for the toy cars, a ball goal, your own birdhouse or a pair of stilts – choose from many fun things that are easy to put together.
