Went ahead and made that #33 from harbor freight into a scrub plane. Ground a 3" radius onto the iron. Mouth is wide enough as is. This will be a plane to scrub all that barn wood down with, BEFORE I trust it with my new #5 jack plane Seemed everytime i'd try to bid on a Stanley #40, some sniper would get there first. Since i already had the #33 on hand, why not?
I have 11 handsaws sitting here, waiting to be sorted out. Still have 6 out in the shop. The ones in the shop will stay put, the rest? Might be for sale.....
I'll know more when I sort them out. Bunch of disstons, a Bishop, and an Atkins. Even a re-handled irwin Toolbox saw, the one BEFORE those black impulse-harded teeth saws. Used that today, just to cut some old, dead cherry tree limbs down.
