I probably could have stopped here, but taking it all the way isn't that much more effort.Chuck Myers MF_14_Frog_Face_Truing_4.JPGFrog Face about Half Way56 viewsStarting to look like the effort might be worth it.Chuck Myers MF_14_Frog_Face_Truing_3.JPGFrog Face Clearly Out61 viewsThe unevenness of the frog face is clearly evident in this picture. It's easy to see that the foundation for the cutting iron really wasn't very solid. The entire mechanism above the frog could rock during heavy planing, and maybe even during not-so-heavy planing.Chuck Myers MF_14_Frog_Face_Truing_2.JPGFrog Face Initial Strokes57 viewsJust getting started.Chuck Myers MF_14_Frog_Face_Truing_1.JPGTruing the Frog Face61 viewsHere's the frog clamped in a tin knocker's vise with leather lined jaws. The file I used for truing it is sitting on top of it. It's a 12 inch bastard cut, which I find does the job reasonably quickly while leaving a finished-enough surface.Chuck Myers MF_14_Frog_Face_Before_3.JPGLower Frog Face51 viewsCloser view of the lower portion of the frog face, with all its warts.Chuck Myers MF_14_Frog_Face_Before_2.JPGUpper Frog Face76 viewsHere you can see in greater detail how uneven the frog face was. Residual paint, etc. Unevenness of the milling will become more apparent in pictures that follow.Chuck Myers   19 files on 2 page(s) 1 2 Powered by Coppermine Photo Gallery and JoomBla!
