Nice plane. I have some persimmon- Might try one of these.

Cool idea woodbridge! That Veritas kit is nice isn’t it.

I keep telling myself use more hand tools and looking at this makes it more and more tempting .
Thanks for the inspiration Peter .

Very nice , when you can make your own tools it’s one less $ that could go overseas.
And If a part breaks you can fix it or make a new pcs. I think it helps you to do better work all together cause you know if you make a crappy tool it’s going to perform crappy and it will show in your work. Quite a few of my woodworking tools are modifications, or old tools I’ve rehabbed and I’d use them before any of the new stuff that’s out there . I like wood and metal , plastic has very little place for good , durable tools I expect all most all of mine will wind up in my son’s hands one day.
Quality materiels and proper use will ensure that.

Very well done. Making tools for yourself has no better feeling of accomplishment, it’s a bonus that this one is so beautiful!

I love this plane great job.
