Thread: My latest "full sized" infill

    My latest "full sized" infill

    I recently finished building this guy. He sports a 2 1/4'' blade, 9'' sole, and Caribbean Rosewood (Chechen). Bit of a low rider, but I like a low center of gravity in a larger plane.

    Wow. I love your work. I especially love your planes with the overhanging wood handles. Is that an adjustable mouth?

    I like the shavings, that's what it's really all about for me.

    Beautiful. What are the other blade specifications ... it looks very thick ... bevel up or down? Same question as Malcolm ... is that brass pin sacrificial for adjusting the mouth?

    That's a bronze strike button at the nose... just makes for a nice target when tapping. The bevel down blade is made of A2 and is 3/16'' thick.

    I haven't had a weigh in, yet. I'd be surprised if it hit 6 Lbs.
