Small Router Plane $30

**Dave Reed** · 13th January 2022, 03:37 PM

Found a U Tube video (all acknowledgements to Woodworkers Companion) on making small router planes and thought that I would add these to my ((very) limited) range of woodworking tools. Did some research looking at the various small router planes available and came up with a design borrowing mainly from the ideas of our predecessors and with a touch of my own
This is Mark 1 and works like a dream.

Timber in the handle is Snakewood and Jam, both Acacias from WA and as hard as the hobs of hell, blade is a 1/4" Allen Key (hardened steel) and is 5.5mm wide at the cutting point. The base is 10m hard Acrylic and is approx 130mm x 80mm.
As this is likely to be the first in the line and was made primarily to prove the viability of the process I am offering this as a prototype for $30 + postage (around $10 within Australia)

I expect that with a few refinements and taking in the labour and materials I will be able to sell the final versions for around $60, please let me know if you think this is a reasonable price
