These are the METAL planes that I have, I might post a portrait of the five (so far ) wooden bodied planes I also Have. The metal ones are all in re-hab at the moment. new tote here, new blade there, tweaking all around. The #110 is closest to being done, just a blade "tune-up", and "out the door". Ol'Red will take the longest, but who's in a hurry? Already have the sole done, working on a new blade, and maybe a new set of handles this weekend. Tomorrow it's new brakes on the van, and a nap, I work all night tonight. Ol'red, and the #3 will be getting a fresh coat of paint, as time goes by. First have to get rid of that old paint.

Nothing more satisfying than getting the herd cleaned up and puttin'em back to work! Good luck and have fun!
