>Rolf, this is amazing as usual. The "design" section of your website was also interesting and might lend itself to discussion by those who are following the current design threads on the critiques board.

>Hi Rolf,

Another extremely impressive performance in the machined-from-solid parade! I keep wondering when this is going to become a business.

You asked about suggestions for the next plane after the bevel up side rebate. I think one of the most useful of all planes is the fenced rebate, or moving filletster. With depth stop and nicker.

Congratulations again! Wiley

>Hi Wiley,

I just bought a Stanley #78 :)

I have just finished the design of an infill plane and I am playing with the intention to make a small production line of 5 planes.

The infill will be without adjuster, because this will make the plane to expensive. but the plane will have 2 small screws in each side to align the blade square to the sole as in the block plane.

The plane will have an 50� bed angle and an 6mm thick A2 iron, so it can easily deal with difficult wood.

At the moment I asked a metallworkshop to make an offer of the metall body..............

regards

Rolf
