storing a shooting plane? - mdhills - 11-27-2018

How do folks store their shooting planes?
(the handle is a bit awkward and it isn't a good neighbor in the till designed for #5-#7 planes)

I keep my LN 51 in the original box it came in. I have a set of handles and latches that haven’t gotten around to installing yet, i’ve Only had it two years. :-)

Mine lives on a shallow shelf with some other specialty planes.
P.S. - You might want to post this upstairs in "Hand Tools" rather than here in "Swap and Sell."

Love the cabinet. Is that small drawknife a Millers Falls? How do you like it? I've been wanting a small drawknife like that but they seem to be a little spendy. What's your opinion, are they worth it?

I have mine stored at Lee Valley, however, I just have not got around to asking Rob for it back yet.

It's a Jennings, very useful for finer work.

Thought I had posted it there...   I was wondering why I couldn't find the thread later...  (d'oh)

So Box, LV, and custom shelf above the till.

Thanks everyone.
