Chines and sheers

Glued and screwed the first of the second laminations on the chine. Drilling the screw holes was a little scary, just a but wary of the chine snapping, but nothing happened.

I finally conceded today that my battery drill had done its dash; so went and bought a Bosch 18v LI drill. It's funny how you don't realize how bad the old one was until you get the new one.

Then rounded off the day re-sawing a 2" x 8" x 16' into strips for the sheers. After cutting the strips I had to resaw the width several times to get the worst of the kinks out and it's left me with a reasonably tidy stack of sheers. I still need to run them through the planner to tidy them up.

It created a huge pile of saw dust.
