Hello!
In the past all my woodworking has been done with machine tools, but in the last few years my interest in handtools grew more and more and culminated in taking two courses with DC. For the course I bought an LN No. 4 in bronze ( it just had to be a bronze plane ). For future projects
( workbench and others ) I think of acquiring something bigger. On the course I got of course infected with the 5 ½ virus. And of course there are other beauties like the No. 7, LA jointers or even a No. 8. So I’d like to ask your advice which other plane(s) would be the most sensible to buy. ( To make it quite clear: I’m just talking about bench planes bigger than No. 4 ).
