    Wink My No. 078 Plane -- DON'T LOOK, PAM!

    Here is a pic of my "lovely" number 078 plane.

    Yep, I said "078" -- not "78" -- because it's not exactly a proper Stanley.

    It's a $14.95, India-made knockoff from Harbor Freight!

    Wouldn't really recommend it to anyone for fine woodworking, but for shoulder planing tenons in soft pine it does okay.

    condition where the size of his public is almost in
    inverse proportion to the quality of his work."
    (James Krenov, A Cabinetmaker's Notebook, 1976.)

    I guess my public must be pretty huge then.
