As far as use - any instance where you ...Hi Chris,<br /><br />As far as use - any instance where you needed a really deep wide rabbet. The handle tilts left and right and pivots left to right as well. This would allow you to keep the hand on the rear handle out of the way.... but the plane is so tall, I am not sure what you might be cutting where you need that much clearance. <br /><br />Drat - I am not that far from upstate NY. You are certainly welcome to stop in whenever you are close. <br /><br />Cheers,<br />KonradKonradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03975387560456769892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-42085976183212419882012-07-03T12:28:46.141-05:002012-07-03T12:28:46.141-05:00Hi Kevin,

My first thought would be to lower the center of gravity and really lower the location of the handle - bring it down. <br /><br />Thanks for adding yet another item to bounce around in the back of my head:)<br /><br />Cheers,<br />KonradKonradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03975387560456769892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-16976488899199552572012-07-03T12:26:15.340-05:002012-07-03T12:26:15.340-05:00yes fairwood - I know what you mean.

It is a bit of an odd duck - but it is pretty cool still... and all the mechanical aspects to the plane make it really fun to make. Lapping it on the other hand... not so much:) <br /><br />Cheers,<br />KonradKonradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03975387560456769892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-84451838000371499462012-07-02T12:15:55.991-05:002012-07-02T12:15:55.991-05:00It looks elegant but really tough at the same time...It looks elegant but really tough at the same time.

I really liked the shot of the profile and it got me thinking: If you were to build this plane in your own style, keeping the mechanical elements intact, what changes would you make?Kevin Brehonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06036860598894953939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-83638561563691723382012-07-02T10:18:41.414-05:002012-07-02T10:18:41.414-05:00I really love these planes.
