WOODEN PLANE HANDMADE

By Fauzi, member Oct 03, 2010

In my first post, let me introduce myself: I am Brazilian, from the interior of São Paulo and I am a hobbyist.
Encouraged me to make a plane for myself and happy with the result ended up doing another. I put the pictures of you for consideration.
Sorry for my English. I am using a translator.
Regards.
Fauzi

A fine-looking plane there, Fauzi. What angle is that blade set at?

Dear Oldshavings,
Thanks for the comment. The planer works very well. The seat angle of the blade is 45 degrees.
Regards.

Dear Vee,
The wood used in the body of the plane is "jatobá". It is a very hard wood, which values the work that was done throughout the chisel.
This site has some details of the timber.
