Thanks Bob, it was a fun project, that I hope to use for a very long time to come
BTW, I found >> THIS << online about the laminated blade...
Thanks for this Stu. My recent acquisition of a Sweetheart jointer plane and my refurb of my Dads handed down smoother plane turned up the same blade. I looked at it and thought mmmmh Rob you just seeing things and its probably the way you ground it. Not granting myself any credit I suspected it was laminated but thought naah if it was I would have heard all about it on the forum at some stage. Silly me.
And to think I had in mind to buy a replacement blade before the plane even arrived. Thanks to Larry for bringing me to my senses on that one.
Now your tote and knob are gorgeous. That wood you used looks marvelous. Sorta has a birch bark look. What type of wood is that Stu?
Definitely a keeper this one.
