Challenge 2020-21 - Pittwater Pete
Greetings PlaneMakers.
Sorry, I know I'm a bit late to the party but,"I'm in!"
Being a spectator is fine but getting in and getting dirty is more my style.
So.....my plan, as rough as it is at the moment, is to make a coopers plane.
The intention is to include some features of Dutch planes into the design, as that is my heritage. I guess that means some carving and embellishment.
I think I have some suitable timber but;
- I have no particular design in mind yet.
- I don't have a blade. I'll probably need to make one.
- I have no blade making skills.
- I have zero carving experience.
So, let the fun begin.
I have enjoyed all of your different plane builds to date and I'm very happy to join in.
Many thanks.
Pete.
Welcome to the madhouse Pete!
Yay; another entrant!
Are you looking at making a cooper’s jointer plane, a topper, a croze or a travisher?
