Hand Plane (2018 Hand Tool Build off)

Nice, still grab some of my Wood planes every so often, but very spoiled with the PMV-11 irons.
Some very good shavings, did you do the read through them test?

Thanks Andre, I really prefer using wooden planes. However, I still use my old Bailey pattern planes a lot as well. It does takes some really nice thin shavings. The only thing is the iron is some old thin one I had laying around from an old block plane. Single iron woodies really benefit from thicker irons. With all the planes I plan on making going forward I am going to make my own irons so they are nice and thick.

All my Krenov style planes have Hock irons (nice and thick) in them with chip breakers, I might just make a small low angle, bevel up block plane just for the heck of it? I seem to have a pile of old Stanley iron kicking around.
