Schwag balance
As we descend into the hell of winter and entertain a garage full of projects, I know I'll never be a Schwag Prince, but I do offer balance. Because there is more to life than bike $hit. The latest offerings from the boys in brown:
M965 hubset for wheelbuilding projects
A Veritas Low Angle Jack plane (A2 blade for tool geeks)
And some scrapbooking machine for the missus I have no understanding about:

How are the Veritas planes? I have not tried any of them.
I am a fan of the old stanly low knob bench planes, never was a fan of the newer high knob type.

Dude, if my wife asked for a scrapbooking machine, I would 1) laugh directly in her face, 2) Ask her WTF for, and 3) likely see a divorce lawyer...
Scrapbooking is the point where you just give up on life and start hoarding cats...
