cutting 1/2 blind DTs for a little box, I read the tip, but my scraper was
pretty thick and I didn't want to hammer on them...I ended up using a Red Devil
putty knife, a real *flexible* putty knife with a thin blade that runs through a
metal handle so you can tap on the other end. It worked so well I put in Stanley
W. May's toolchest for next time. That day will come.

OIn my “shop”,the wall-o-crap has many items like that that get forgotten at all
the right times.  I have a Stanley 95 (90° edge plane, Jeff) that i may have
used once or twice that I should use all the time, but my pea-brain can’t
remember it is there.  And like mist things, I cut dovetails so infrequently
that I have to ractically re-learn every time.  Big, steep curve here:
