I was explicitely forbidden to use any tools in school due to being the clumsiest person alive (and the fact that I haven't strangled myself with a microwave's cord by accident is quite a miracle)…

If you took wood class in high school, you should know what a wood planer is, Rafa…..

there is no such thing as "wood class" in germany buddy…at least not at the schools i know and went to!
also i can´t believe i am/was the only one that didn´t recognized it at first sight!

I thought it was a device to make French fries with… Chuck in some taters and ZAP: French fries come out...

I'm still convinced there's a "French fries" setting...

I figured you didn't have wood class in Germany. I grew up in the country. We have wood and metal classes.

Clint, wouldnt that be a thicknesser?

[Clint_D]

555-03 wish me luck.

Just picked up a Brooks Pickwick roll top backpack, made from thick waxed canvas, cast alloy and leather. With the absence of anything from IH this will do the job nicely 

[Chris]

Wow, that does look substantial.
