    Handplanes and a NCWoodworker Visit

    To start, earlier this week my father in law gave me a # 4 Stanley Baily plane that was in pretty rough shape. Half of the tote was missing and the top of the frog broken off. I thought for the most part it was junk, but when research, dated it between 1902 and 1907, I started changing my...

    Knight Toolworks - Wooden Handplanes & Kits

    Recently I got involved helping Steve Knight with some web stuff. Before that I wasn't aware of his planes, or his offerings. Pretty neat though ... simple, yet obviously very functional custom wood hand plans that he builds and tunes -- plus he's now into selling a "ready to build" plane kit...

    First 2 handplanes......

    Picked up woodworking as a hobby when I retired due to a heart problem. Went the typical route and added some big power equipment to add to what I had already accumulated. Moved out of my small 12X16 shop and took over the 3 car garage attached to the house. Having followed this forum for quite...
