I'm looking for a round plane with a radius about 3/8". Aside from eBay or lucking out on the Swap and Sell section here, where is a good place to look? Want used and inexpensive.
Thanks.
Thanks.

You confirm the order, he ships it to you, you inspect, and if you like, you pay. It is great to see that people can still operate that way - all based on trust.

Plenty of YouTube videos out there on how to use them. Roy Underhill even had an episode or two on how to create mouldings.
