6 or 7 years ago I made a small smoother woodie at 65 degrees. It's not too bad.
If the transitional proves to be too problematic I'll take the Plane apart and reconfigure it, so it's going together with Hide glue. :wink:
Unlike the guitar that I'm restoring that dates from 1750(ish). Someone obviously decided that the best way to fix it was to use 10 tubes of superglue on the inside and on the soundboard cracks. :shock:
Complete incompetent nutters.
 
At the end of the day each of us has our own preference for either Norris or Bailey, LN/Isles or Stanley/Record.

Personally I'm more than happy with my mottley collection of second hand Stanley and Record planes mixed with my bargain basement Faithfull and Silverline offerings. I can achieve what I consider good results with any of them. Certainly good enough for what I want and need.

I'm sure you'd find it extremely boring if everyone decided to agree with you, Jacob :wink:
