Cool Tool

[Larry Rose]

Ok, I admit it. I've finally totally lost it and am no longer in control of my tool jones. I couldn't help myself it was so cute

Nice score Larry - :icon_thum

I know the feeling. I'd be interested to hear 6 months from now how often you have used it.

 

[ptt49er]

That is cute!

Now put it to work ;-)

Ditto!

It's adorable, Larry!
Now put the box away for ten years and see whether the dime is worth more or the plane :gar-Bi

Have you tried it out yet? Seriously.

Just wonder if it works.

GOOD SCORE!!!

I agree it was one of those "gotta have it"s, because there's gotta be one time when nothing short of a double-edged razor blade - think safety here - will do. It does work great btw, after a little honing, for smoothing out the ridges on my thumb nails :widea:...espcially after marking a good line with that new "micro" marking wheel gauge (also a gotta have) that was part of Lee Valley's special deal.

Is it any wonder why I have so many "had to have its" for sale? Can't call it a gloat because I didn't take any pics - don't have a macro lens - hmmmmm, maybe I'll get one of those too - :icon_cheers

Guys, sometimes it's the journey, not the destination. BTW the little bugger actually works well.

Like you and Russ, I had to have one as well and was pleased as punch when I opened the package to find the plane and the double ended marking tool. Very well made, sharp blades and definitely better than cute! I just couldn't resist!

I am equally sick and deranged and got them. I actually see a very legitimate use for mine. When I make drawer bottoms I tend to make them 1/4" since that is the size of my grooving plane. (half of a tongue and groove set) I can use this to make sure my drawer bottom grooves are nice and even. Yeah, that's it. It's a drawer bottom groove smoothing plane.

And for when I make that violin. Uh, huh. That's it.

 

[Travis Porter]

Hmmm... I want one. Is that a Lee Valley????

Sure is ($29.50 such a deal):eusa_danc

 

[Travis Porter]

Done. I am sure I am going to hear some flak about it in my house, but hey, it may keep her from seeing something else I have coming. ;-)

I used mine this weekend to clean up some fuzzes from rabbiting the bottom edge of a plywood box bottom. Better than a knife and safer too. I like it and will keep it around.
