    Luban Chinese Block Plane

    You do realise these tools are already extant not made to order specially for you, are being sold by traders who have already paid any taxes the chinese govmt will ever get and therefore are in no way funding Putin

    Luban Chinese Block Plane

    Re-veneering over 'blown' plywood

    I am currently stuck in the house recovering from surgery. But once I am able to get back in the wksp I would be happy to have a look about making a new one for you if you can wait a month or so. Veneer inlay, maquetry (think Louis 14 versailles furniture) is what i do
