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)

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.

As of this time I am now teaching vets again.  If you have any lumber scraps we can use them to glue up to make some bowl from a board.  Thank You

It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

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.
