Looks great! You did a great job on that one.

By the way, that's type 12, isn't it? Sweet heart blade and tall knob.

Edit: Upon closer inspection, that's type 13.

Thanks for pointing that out, how I can type it correctly in 3 other spots, yet mess it up on the forum I'll never know. :o

Nice job Dan...that looks great! It would be right at home next to my #5-1/4 Type 13 (http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y203/hewood/Planes/Type13005.jpg).

You done that plane proud.

This is my first plane so i don't have a good frame of reference but i think it works pretty well. I need to get some sharpening equipment though, as I sharpened the blade freehand with a belt sander.

Is there such a thing?

One can only hope for the chance yard sale.
