Eric. Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 I hope your prize only weighs an ounce or two or you're gonna be sorry you offered a prize. He just happens to live on the other side of Earth. Hahahahaa! Aaaahaahahahaha! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Cancelleri Posted July 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Oddly Enough Daisuke Ishiwatari was born in Johannesburg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dewald Swanepoel Posted July 23, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Haha. The hint that helped was that he's Japanese. Ishiwatari's name immediately popped to mind as I recently saw a song of his featured in the Playstation game, Rocksmith. Come to think of it, it could even have been this very song. I didn't know he was actually born in my city :-) Thanks for the offer of a prize but I don't think it's sensible to be shipping something halfway around the world just because I knew something. I think the bragging rights will suffice. Or maybe a cheaper way of rewarding me with a prize would be just passing it forward. Next time you pass a homeless dude, buy him a sandwich or something ;-) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a killer song from one of my favorite 2d fighting games Guilty Gear X. Which was designed and made by Daisuke himself. Did the production, design, coding, some of the voices, and the soundtrack.

Tom Cancelleri Posted July 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Scraped glue. Bought some new stuff today. Scraper, worked great on the glue, and has profiles. Domiplate, and new splinter guards for the track saw. Sent from my 831C using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Cancelleri Posted July 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 I came close to buying a carvex today. I had to exercise restraint, as I don't need it right now. Sent from my 831C using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdwerker Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Domiplate is a big improvement on the Domino for 1/2" and 3/4" sheet goods. I use a lot of 5/8 Baltic so I made 2 shims out of Formica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Cancelleri Posted July 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Talk about exercise. Doing this solo. That slab is heavy, but gets lighter with every pass. Just under 3/8" to remove at 1/32 per pass. 2 gallons of chips per pass.

Tom Cancelleri Posted July 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Almost 3am I can finally go to bed. There was some odd shift when marking the tenons. The back slab is 1/8" further left of the end cap. No big deal, I could fix it, but I'm not going to. Because it won't make a difference when using the bench.
