Row of #40 Scrub planes

Jim Reed @ Tallahassee

>Here is one of my projects which is winding down. I picked up the #40 bodies over the past few years and dug them out after my recent move. My buddy Johnny Kleso made the bronze lever caps and I made the blades. With just a little sharpening, the springtime scrub party is right around the corner.

Tote-ally challenged

Jim Reed @ Tallahassee

>The one on the far right is challenged because someone drilled out the screw hole to attach a scrap of wood with a bolt (!). Perhaps the way to fix it is to make an infill tote. There is a sight--scrubbing with an INFILL scrub plane! Pretty uptown!
