022 Strike block plane

Here is my first attempt of building a hand plane with mouth closer. To understand how the mouth closer works watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mfd_YmOI2M The basic desing is classic mitre plane, but the blade is bevel down, like in wooden strike-block planes. I set the blade extremely low - 33 deg angle - for long time it was my small obsession to check how it will works. Today i know, it works preety well :) It was very instructive project for me and takes me for another level in my planemaking. I hope you will like it :) Materials: Pear wood Black locust wood An old laminated plane blade made by Heinr Mueller Boiled linseed oil Shellac orange. If you have any questions or sugestions just write a comment. Enjoy! .........................................................................
