Oh, and I made a schnitzelbank

[jeffp51]

I spent an afternoon and some scrap lumber (and some from the big box) and made this shaving horse.  Since I teach German, I prefer to think of it as a Schnitzelbank.  Found the plans on this great site.  Sure makes carving a lot easier than it has been so far.

Nice, yeah a schnitzelbank certainly makes the work easier, well worth the effort of making one.
Worth while making it fold up or take-down for transport too.
I shall tease my brother in law with that word as he used to teach German... mind my pronunciation will be all wrong and he'll still get tha last laugh

Can you write out the pronunciation phonetically... I think I can manage the schnitzel... but is it bonk, bunk or bank...?

Gents, it's actually a Schnitzbank and the 'bank' is to be pronounced 'bunk'
A Schnitzel is what you all think it is....

I always think of this when I say Schnizelbank:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIk4sC8ASS0.
Quick German lesson. "Schnitzel" means little carving or little shaving.  So the food Schnitzel is a thin slice of (pan fried) meat.  Bank is bench and is pronounced just how Yacko and Wacko say it.

The Viking quiver is now posted in the Arrows section with the Bamboo arrows I made in it.  Please go have a look.

Oh and that guy trying to teach the song is slaughtering the pronunciation of schöne, and most everything else.  It hurts my ears.  trust Yacko more.

Well, not trying to get to serious here, but evenso Schnitzel has that meaning, it is not a word that is in use for anything else than a pork or calf meat cut of the same name, or in a children's game named Schnitzeljagd.
And it is nonetheless a Schnitzbank, not a Schnitzelbank.
At least in the Germany I life in...

Frank, look up the song.  I have always heard Schnitzelbank--in this country and in Germany.

But I do love a good Schnitzel.  Best I ever had was in Salzburg, although I prefer Jägerschnitzel.  What part of Germany do you live in?  I get over there about once a year--usually in Berlin and Dresden area.

Another name for your great work could also be the infamous
German Stobemfromflobbin. I like your vice.

My dad lived in Heidelberg in the early seventies. He still has great stories of it.
