steven newman Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Got the narrow end thingy squared up, got the front footer squared away. Dragged out the slab of a top, ( two board glue up) and decided to try to level things a bit.. You'd think that a plane 3" shorter than that big #6c would be easier to push around....not. Got both faces flattened out Plane is a Stanley No.5-1/2 Type 17 Jumbo Jack same width as a #6, but is only 15" long. Got these flat, maybe a test fit of thingys? Just a few clamps to hold it in place, until I can do a few things with the tape measure... Will need a filler there to keep the top spread out above the door. Yep, the door will go here on the end. Need to make cleats to hold the floor/shelf. Debating on rounding off the corners of the top. Top had two knot HOLES, not just knots, these are through holes. Will make a plug to fill them. Router might get a workout later, as the Boss wanst a fancy edge....MIGHT have a bit for that. Going to be a Biggem... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got both faces flattened out If you lookin for one that's easier to push around then look at the ones with a cord at one end and spinning blades at the other end....
