    Default Marcou plane blogs

    Afternoon All, Can anyone recall a site wherein Philip showed with fotos and great descriptions the processes of machining that he uses to make his planes?
    Thanks Ron Booth

    His website is www.marcouplanes.co.nz but he doesn't show that much detail (unless I'm looking in the wrong places).

    The Aussie dollar is quite strong against the Kiwi - you might pick up a bargain ("hi honey, mind if I spend $4000 on a plane for my shed.....?")

    Talk Festool website has a section for Marcou planes.

    Philip MARCOU himself posts there regularly. He also has a lot of work in progress and advice.

    Excellent stuff.
