Makings of a rib plane !
Quartersawn blanks are chosen,
and shaped using vintage,
and custom molding planes.



A Mother plane is used to shape the
sole profile. Notice the shavings.

The mortise and iron bed are cut at
York Pitch, about a 50 degree angle.

The wedge is custom fit to the iron.
The chamfers and handhold are
then shaped by hand.
