fascinating footage. nobody was seriously using moulding planes in 1962 I reckon. but he was trained in the twenties or thirties when they were common. the person who trained him was edwardian/victorian. I reckon he's about 55 or 60. obviously fit and healthy. as making a plane seems a very vigarous thing. I reckon he was sweating doing it that quick.

I love the way he used the correct tools. a mallet on his wooden chisels(the big un looks like an oire nomi) and wooden jack planes a badger plane and an apron all look pristine as well(some new tbh). his wooden jigs are well worn.

all the racks of moulding planes are they his mother planes? was he making a small sash plane(sprung ovolo)
