Well, never underestimate the capability of a drawknife, I guess. Between the big chisel and the knife I pretty much got it to where I want. No grinder disc or fore plane will be needed.

Still some deep chips around the naughty knot midway up, but they’re more leveled out now. I won’t worry about it all. Deeper than they look here.

The spots on left edge by patch will minimise after corner work.

The ugly close end will be cut off and tenoned, replaced by the bracket hardware.

Getting there.

I remembered what I had thought trying a while back and forgot. Heh.

Instead of wasting time finding and fighting a junk tire for a piece of rubber, I could use a piece of junk plastic cutting board. It may not absorb noise as well as rubber, but it will absorb some, and vibration, and be better than aluminum all around as a post sole on tile. I have such a board, 1 cm thick.

To reduce the vibrations you can add just a piece of inner tube, easier to work than a tire:

Inner-tube seems a little thin for this. I want to raise the wood off the floor a bit too, protect the edges. Plastic cutting board will work good, all things considered.
