A 50mm Fingernail Plane...

Tue, 06/07/2011 - 21:08 | by Div

So now it looks like I have a nasty case of rhykanitis! Following a lot of recent plane talk with some fellow woodworkers, I had the urge to make yet another plane…

OK, I'm lying!This one is actually a little under 2 ½” long. A real pocket plane….a baby smoother…a tiny trim plane…I decided to call it a fingernail plane :^) I’m just playing now, going smaller and smaller it seems…

The plane iron was made from a piece of broken HSS jointer knife.
Be inspired and make more planes!

Yours in sawdust
