The construction for this
plane became lively by the flat angle plane No. 62 by Lie Nielsen and the Holtey
No. 98.
The 3D-Modell was produced
by changes from the 3D-Modell of
the " Norris
Infills". For this the dimensions were changed and the wedge-shaped iron
bed was supplemented.
The iron lies on a solid
iron bed with an angle of 23°, so that by differently ground iron different
face angles can be obtained. I used for this plane the iron No. 62 from Lie
Nielsen, so that itself a face angle of 48°
results in.
At this plane appears to
me particularly favourably to be able to reach the possibility different face
angles since the iron with the reflector surface lies downward on the iron bed.
For this the iron with another face angle is ground
The iron is set by a
knurled thumb screw M6x0,5, which proved as sufficiently sensitive.
The plane is milled from
solid brass. For the material choice this time the good cutting property spoke
of brass. After milling the plane became evenly and angularly grinded on a
surface grinding machine.
The first draft, which I not continued to pursue, I planned to attache plates: however not the traditional building method with the dovetail joints, but I intended to connect the plates by pins and screws. I will try this technology out with the large shoulder plane.
Around the surface of the relatively soft brass to protect the plane was galvanically hard-chromium plated .
The plane is equipped with a sliding plate, so that the mouth can be adjusted. The sliding plate is fixed, as with my other constructions by the front handle with screws.
The plane has a length of 30cm and weighs approx. 4kg
Here one can see the milled iron bed::

My first experiences with the plane are impressing. However by its weight it slides sovereign over the wood and works well even wiht difficult woods. The large grasps make a safe and comfortable handling possible.
