Woodsmith Miter Plane Plans
This traditional hand plane style blends stunning looks with glass smooth surfaces. Combine metalworking with some woodworking and you have one amazing tool. Based on English miter planes and inspired by those made by Bill Carter. The bed angle is low — usually between 17°-25°. It’s a fine-tuning plane and takes a thin shaving — really excelling on hard, dense woods, and end grain.
