Cheap and good working fret saw ($14) - http://www.cigarboxnation.com/forum/topics/inexpesive-fret-saw-and-...
With a few quick modifications to install a wood rail depth guide I've been very happy with it.
Mama, he thought the hand planer would be better suited for this application. I think they were using the large planer and he did not want to mess with adjusting the height. I have hesitation on buying a fret saw, if I could find one with the guide for around $20 I'd buy it. I am genetically disposed to penny pinching, lol.
Josh, I do have a 2" wide hand planer that I recently got a new iron for, and practiced my strokes for the first time. It was hard getting a smooth pass on some 100 yr old cedar I was working on. The wood that got electric planed was African Blackwood. It seems to be fairly dense wood. I might have to look into building my own D.T. Sander. They seem pretty costly.
