I think I might have picked up the kit if this had been available to follow, rather than just doing my shell job on the cap screw. <BR/>I'm curious on the OptiVisor whether you've got the add-on light accesory and if so what you think of it. I've got one but wondered if the extra light would help any. I still sometimes have trouble seeing the small stuff well but wondered how easy it is to keep the light accy aimed at the work.<BR/><BR/>DougDoughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429632498734384810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390270285708735717.post-65947031386370804242009-02-21T13:44:00.000-06:002009-02-21T13:44:00.000-06:00Merci de m'avoir répondu en français.Merci de m'avoir répondu en français.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14869269900298874949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390270285708735717.post-84691148022739474312009-02-21T13:33:00.000-06:002009-02-21T13:33:00.000-06:00L'expression est jolie, mais je voulais dire amour...L'expression est jolie, mais je voulais dire amoureux fou (mad in love about manual tools) des outils manuels.<BR/><BR/>A bientot.

I'm not a plane maker, so I can't really advise you on a direction, these opinions are based on what I've read and heard from plane makers. I'd love to see the outcome of your effort though.Jameelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06217450631969033723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390270285708735717.post-21598738235562654882009-02-16T19:14:00.000-06:002009-02-16T19:14:00.000-06:00Great read, thanks for sharing the process.

The first plane was based on Karl Holtey's 11-SA, and the other two have been small shoulder planes based on Konrad Sauer's.<BR/><BR/>My next project will take me up to a full size plane for the first time - lets just hope it's not a step too far for my skill level.<BR/><BR/>I'm still deliberating whether to go with the traditional dovetail method, or with this new screw/pin method that Ron and Karl have been using. What do you think?<BR/><BR/>Cheers <BR/><BR/>AledAledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13498417954752803689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390270285708735717.post-90891550133803718102009-02-16T11:18:00.000-06:002009-02-16T11:18:00.000-06:00Thanks Aled.

The metal work is done for you, and with the enormous amount in savings over a complete plane, this makes a high-performance infill plane within the reach of lots of folks.
