    Do I need a 5 1/2 plane.

    The no. 6 is the best I have for a shooting board. My Quangsheng is new so I haven't used it accept for trying it out. It is a heavier pane than what I'm use to. It is wider and cast iron so it will be heavier. If its a lighter plane I need then I will reach for a lighter one.
