>I do not own one but I have seen it and played with one a bit. It is much smaller than the 55 or 45 Stanley and would be really nice for doing smaller, detail work. Keeping the irons very sharp is always a key for any molding plane. I personally use a small collection of wood molding planes, most from the late 1800's or early 1900's that I have bought at flea markets, eBay or on-line old tool retailers. Most have proven to be tunable but some are only good for the shelf. The Bridge City plane is probably a given that it will work.

>I apologize for the thread hijaak...I was going to send the following link to Dave personally written by a prince of a gentleman in regards to the chisels Dave makes. But this hijaak gives me the opportunity to embarras him publically .

If you have never handled one of his chisels, you would be in for a treat. Especially the DT chisels...

Take care, Mike
