recommend a block plane for....dare i say it.....£30?

[Yorkie]

As the post topic says, i need a block plane for about £30.

I've just decided to go self-employed and need to buy a couple of tools. I'm going to get what i need as i go along.

I would LOVE to get quality tools that i used in the workshop but i just cant afford these right now.

So, there's the challenge. Although i don't think there will be much difference in the (poor) quality of a plane at this price.

What you reckon guys and gals?

Easy!

Mujingfang from Workshop Heaven £27.00:

Widely agreed to be the best performance for the money.

Ill second the Mujinfang.
Excellent bit of kit. Use mine daily for the final shooting of cupboard doors in hardwood.
