Just finished this box. Due to the slender shape not everything is fitting like I hoped. But still quite content whit the result as a novice marquetry hobbyist. used veneers are: makasser ebony, padauk, purpleheart, sycamore, walnut burl. The grey (dyed??) and yellow did come in a surprise...

Hello all, I bought an old and rusty plane iron yesterday. I suspect it once was a part of a shoulderplane (wood or infill). But i can only find hammers by Picard. Does anyone know the history of the maker of this plane iron? Regards, Bram
