My First Plane

[DougB]

Hey that kinda looks like a sportscar, eh? Cool. What kind of wood did you use?

Looks like it is working pretty good with those shavings it's puttin' out!

It's maple with a Jarrah sole.

I've been thinking wheels. DH says it needs a stripe of british racing green down the side. :)

A racing stripe would be perfect, and maybe paint some tires, headlights, etc on it too. I'd like to see a picture of that when you get it done.

Blue analine dye with a white 'shelby' stripe down the centre!

Thought I'd post a pic of something I did mostly a few weeks ago, but didn't finish up until last week.

It's a wooden plane from a Hock kit (Krenov-style wooden plane).
