    G'day Phil,

    Haven't got one of those, but it certainly looks rather cute!

    Not sure if my mitts would fit that little fellow though - just send it here to let me find out

    I've got #2C - #8C (type 11) but I don't think I will ever own a #1 so I'm a bit jealous of anyone who has one

    It goes well with my:
    Stanley No5, No4, Turner No41/2, Stanley No3's (US and English), No79, No71, No45, No78, No80 and the two Rapier No3's plus the Matherson Coffin Smother and rebate and early Record wooden Jack.

    What I like about the Lie-Nielson No1 is that I can carry it in the pocket of my trousers just in case.

    Arrrrr ... ooooooo

    sorry that's all I can say

    If i had one I think it would live on a shelf in the loungeroom (when not being used of course) it's too beautiful to leave in the shed when you're not there.

    When one has finished building one's house, one suddenly realizes that in the process one has learned something that one really needed to know in the worst way--before one began.
