Justin Snyder:
Hey Bob, I want more info. ;D Is that a regular block clamp on the front. How about a close up of where the clamp and the support meets the horse. Thanks Justin

Pretty slick bob, do you use carriage bolts to put it together or pegs?

Hillbilly:
I've got an official hillbilly style (traditional Southern Appalachian type) shaving horse that I hewed out of an oak log. Ain't too pretty, but does what I need it to. I can remember when almost all the people of my grandpa's generation had one of these sitting around somewhere-the drawknife and shaving horse were used to make just about everything wooden that they used. You can find plans for one of these in Roy Underhill's book The Woodwright's Shop, which most libraries have.

I recently made this one from oak, ash and birch. Great tool!
