double iron double direction mitre plane?

[Pedder]

Hi

I need help. On our german forum, there's a question about a double iron double direction mitre plane. I remember to have seen such an animal, but I forgot where.



tool #31 in the picture

Anybody?

There's a metal-bodied American version of this that I've seen just once in the metal - just the plane, missing the table/fence.

If I ever find a complete one at a price I like, my pocket's likely to catch on fire from the speed with which the wallet comes out.

Metal version, mine.

Thanks, Gents, I knew there would be help on woodnet!

Edit: Now, there are some nice plane pictures on the german forum, too.: http://www.woodworking.de/cgi-bin/forum/...tosshobel/
