Mshel and I exchanged gifts today. When I unwrapped my gift I saw a beautiful box.
I knew what would be inside before I opened it. A few years ago when I was visiting Mike at his shop he opened a drawer and took out a really nice box. When he opened the box I saw it was custom fit to hold his LV medium shoulder plane. I told him I had never seen such a beautiful storage solution. Perfect protection for the plane and a real beauty.
I got my LV shoulder plane about 18 months ago. Apparently Mike remembered how much I liked his plane storage box. :gar-Bi
Well, the box he made me was even nicer than his! Heirloom quality tool storage at its finest. I am lucky to have such a good friend.
The pics don't do justice to the figure in the wood. And the workmanship is typical of Mike, just beautiful. Ths finish is flawless.

A peek inside. Nice home for a deserving plane, huh?
