Hi George;

I agree wholeheartedly, but I might not place the plane so far up the list! I even used my Record low angle block plane to shape my recent wooden recorder (1-1/8" dia.), because it was so controllable. Fast, smooth, efficient material removal is what a plane is all about, and just a little practice can generate some great results. Are you guys sharpening your plane irons enough? [VBG]

Wish I had more woodworking time lately, Spidey
