Planes and Shooting Boards

[Lillian]

In another thread Sebastiaan shared a link to the build of an old woman's tooth plane. Worth the read, definitely. But if you don't have a shooting board or don't like your set up, you need to read through Derek's threads on making/using shooting boards. I really liked how he modified a record 6 to be used with the shooting board.

He also does a version of an infill plane that I think I might have to take a closer look at. I'm thinking a high angle plane in the future.

His marking knife has the feel of holiday presents written all over it.

Yeah, I thought Derek did a great job and wanted to point some of the lurkers over there. Answers some basic questions that don't always get asked.

I assume this is Derek Cohen.....he's a hand tool guru and posts over on the Ubeaut Woodworking Forums.

Yup, that's him.
