I didn't make them..I just thought others may like to see them...I have made a couple of planes out of wood but prefer making them out of brass....

We had a plane building class at the Zone. Wished there would have been more people interested.
There was router Jim. John Fry. Chris (bobo) and I. May have been a couple of others.
I didn't remove all the bandsaw marks. I wanted to unique....rough.....made to use.

That's a really nice looking mitre plane!
But, how can anyone afford the metal for those things? That is, one bigger than a block plane or instrument maker's size. ?

I have plenty of brass in stock...It was much cheaper when I bought it years ago. I would still buy some sheet bronze but cant find what I am looking for.

Hmmm...Traditional Chinese Edge Plane....
With shavings...was made in my shop, a few years back
White Oak for the wood parts, H-F lathe chisel (skew) provided the iron
Iron is at a skew, fence is adjustable up to 1" wide. Took about...one weekend to make...uses square nuts in the slots/mortises for the fence bolts to tighten the fence in place.
Plane is pushed, not pulled.
Show me a picture, I'll build a project from that
