Bevel-up jack plane in stainless and cocobolo.  It works like a dream... but, what a pain in the butt to make.

Absolutely beautiful lines and design sir, not to mention the excellent execution.
I really like the stainless steel! 
This plane looks like the finest of race cars!
Great job! I am sure it is a wonderful user too!
Thanks for sharing

Wow! Love the color scheme here. It almost looks too good to use for a rough hobby like woodworking.

Very nice work. You’ve really hit your sweet spot aesthetically.

So how much does that plane weigh? I can’t imagine it’s very light…

Wow, what a beautiful work of art! One question I have is, how long does it take to make?
