Ok, OK, Settle down people...

>Joe got it right. This is Paul's newest offering.

Dean, no infill or anything like that, what you see is what you'll get.

In a few weeks anyway, he working out the bugs and getting ready to produce them.

I was talking to Paul early this week about the Miller's Patent plane and he shared this with me. He will be producing these "Slipper Planes" and I'm pushing for a kit plane like the last of the Miller's he offered.

A finished plane will be in the $200.00-$250.00 range, sorry I was having too much fun talking to him I don't remember the actual cost of a finished one.

I'm hoping for a kit version myself, because I'm having way too much fun with putting the final touches on my Miller's patent. Pic of my soon.
