[QUOTE="D_W, post: 1442112, member: 22799"] I have the mini shoulder plane, and I think one of the other mini tools. I can tell you for sure that I have no idea where they are in this house and I wouldn't take a 50/50 bet that I could find one within 15 minutes. That gives you an idea of how much use they get. I do have a stanley 271 that I've used a fair bit. Things of that sort (joinery planes and router planes and such), I don't see the draw of premium tools. When you get to itty bitty stuff, I'm out, too. I've built a few guitars (as was mentioned above), but tend to use files, floats or chisels to clean areas where anything that small would otherwise be used (there's still a market or other guitar and violin related metal tools, generally a little more coarsely made, but less expensive) [/QUOTE]
