you wish to borrow a set of cauls? I've got most of Bill's caul sets - mortise
sizing and other. What size are you looking for - what size are your pins? I
think I've done a Chickering before, so I might have the cauls.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

maple would be a good choice for caul making. When I put my mortise sizing
cauls in, the key wood is usually a little wet - I'd be concerned that the
maple would swell and who knows what size the mortise would end up. But that's
just my guess.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
