What is that website? I usually don't care about where people spend their money as it's not really my business. however you deserve to get shafted if you even consider purchasing that stuff at those prices. Search around, you can get that stuff for 3-10x cheaper, it may not be under those fancy...

I manage with about 25m2 space - However... I have another room where to store things like materials and stuff I rarely use so they don't get in a way.

out of interest, what are you cutting with it? how often and to what precision do you work? It can perfectly cut small trim pieces- just because you can't notice any blade wander in small pieces as they are so small. Try cutting a 15cm tall skirting board to joint it together with another...

I see they are quite popular in USA and very plentiful , However I have searched whole UK ebay and can't really find anything like this.

I'm now after a blockplane (for endgrain/edge trimming & other odd trimming jobs), I have been checking ebay and I'm confused with all the different models there are. I heard that I would need a low angle block plane for this sort of stuff but not sure if any of those vintage old record/stanley...

Alright thanks :) I kinda wanted wood handles myself and one of the older planes, but I have been searching on ebay for ages and all of the planes which are in nice presentable condition go for ridiculous money. Or...You can purchase something that is rusted out and beat up :( I found someone...
