MY FIRST PLANE - Brian Miller - 09-17-2015

A couple of years ago, I went to Charlotte Michigan to take John Wilson's Shaker Oval Box class and really enjoyed the class with John. Link to his web site: http://www.shakerovalbox.com/

Last year I bought John's book Making Wood Tools, so earlier this year, I decided to make the first project in his book, a block plane. The plans include all the information needed, plus how to make and heat treat the blade, from 01 tool steel. Making the plane was relatively easy and it was a fun and useful project. The materials are Walnut and Birdseye Maple.

Very nice, but where are the wood curly things sticking out of the front?
