pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 24-Nov-19 12:47 | | Views : 635 | Beginning the Fuselage. Got out the old stuff to get some straight lines. Picked up all these Carpenter/Cabinet planes on ebay.de for around $100. Shipped! All the blades and wedges are there. Just a bit of TLC. And some serious re-grind on a couple. It's all good though. I've been acquiring and restoring many vintage hand tools over the past few years to use. nothing like "Hands-on" ! |

I made the "Snathe" (handle) out af laminated spruce. I mowed my Fathers lawn with it for a year and a half....before I jumped into my new life. Built that Cabin too. |
