I just cut a few rabbets in some Jatoba for a box I'm building. It's the
pet urn from the recent Canadian Woodworking Magazine. I don't own a
shoulder plane so I logged on to the Lee Valley site to buy one and they are
out-of-stock until the end of April. Anyone have any suggestions on other
good ways to clean up the saw marks without damaging the nice lines of my
box? I suppose I could use sandpaper but I'm concerned with keeping
everything straight. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, everybody, for your input. I ended up using a combination of
sanding and scraping and it seems to have come out ok, although a SHOULDER
PLANE would have been nicer. Get that Rob,.... SHOULDER PLANE? Anyway,
I'll post some pics on ABPW when I get the finishing complete.

pet. Tom

Damn, I coulda beat you for uptime 'cept last week I gave my 286 chassis
with an AT-2 MB and Pentium MMX 233 the Fonzi treatment to stop it's CPU
cooling fan CPU squealing (about 4 times) and the damn thing froze up.

Use a single-edge razor blade as you would a scraper and clean the edge up
with that. Or if you want more aggressive action, use a chisel, held nearly
vertical and pulled along the rabbet to clean up the saw marks.

Scraper? Not that difficult to make a small profile scraper from a used
hacksaw blade or utility knife blade. With a little practice, a light
touch, and not much pressure you can get a glass-smooth finish.
good luck

Your problem is your blades aren't sharp enough. You didn't spend
enough time lapin them.

I'm glad I didn't have my long-handled crowbar out this
morning.
Speaking of which, could you resend that email acknowledging
the order? I had a computer crash (NT blue screen) right
after it came so I lost it. Merci!
