    #55 plane rods

    Just made two 11" rods from 304 stainless steel; just have always felt 8.5" long rods a bit too short for larger stock and yes I know we can reverse the one guide. Now to enter a new realm of possibilities.

    PM me if you think you'd want a cam rest machined out or aluminum or brass.
