Post: RE: Veritas Large Shoulder Plane PMV-11 Blade
FWIW, this Veritas plane and its smaller brother, are great tools IMO (I have both). Specialty items for most, but always get high marks in reviews of this model. Good luck with the sale!

Great video and the guy had very a very good presentation technique, IMO. Miter saws are probably one of the most challenging tools for DC. 96% is pretty good and way above average, I'm guessing.
