Hi All,
While I am writing it's rainy and there are some lightnings outdoor. It's a very bad day (meteorologically speaking) but perhaps it's good for a thought I done yesterday evening. :roll:
I explain it.....naturally it is always around to the wood.....
I tried to flatten a small surface as the side of my wooden mallet about 12 cm with my #4 and #5. It has been very laborious, I was not able to plan nothing although the surface at a check with a rule was flat. It has only been possible extending the blade much because I think, I didn't be able to bring the plane in plan because the short surface.
Therefore thinking and rethinking why it occured I have arrived to a conclusion: for a short surface we need a small plane, and for a long surface we need of a long plane in sense that a plane needs of a surface which is longer than length between the toe and the heel. :?: :idea:
Is it true, or I am a bad "handplanner" ??
