Now the jointer plane is finished. The bedangle of the iron is 60° to deal with difficult wood. I attached a birch tote.


I finished the sole on my granite plate with sandpaper. It was not easy to flatten the sole, but now itīs done.
The plane fullfilled my expections.
I tested it on rawsawn boards, nasty birch and IPE.
Almost no tearout, just a few strokes with the scraperplane and the boards here done.
Here you will find the link of the buidling process (http://www.hobel-und-eisen.de/holz/HObel/Holzrauhbank/holzrauhbank.htm)

Rolf:

I see that you've branched out to wooden bodies. I'm so used to seeing your massive, machined bronze billet creations.

It's absolutely beautiful. The cutting iron and chip breaker are gargantuan! I don't imagine blade chatter is an issue. Looking at that wooden slab your joiner is resting one, I can see what a sweet job it does.

Are you aware that you are rapidly becoming one of the most accomplished and well known amateur plane makers in the {at least Internet-related} woodworking world?

As always, thanks for sharing.
