    Sure wish there was a left-handed version ... but I'll probably get one anyway.

    Does this work well in your opinion? Seems affordable.

      I think it works well for what it is. It's now my goto for shaving small pieces of wood down to size or squaring it up. I used to use a "Veritas Pocket Plane" on a homemade shooting-board. This one is nicer because the plane stays in its track. I use it on basswood which is relatively soft - and typically 1/4-inch thick.
      Note that the shooting-board has to be adjusted before use, squaring the fence and tightening the metal track (which requires a Robertson 0 bit). Another point to consider is the plane's handle, which is loose - I don't use it and push on the back of the plane instead of using the handle.
      Overall I like the plane and the shooting-board and I put them to work - but in some ways they're a novelty item. It's a miniature tool that's good for making miniature things.

      @@WhittlinRich what is the thickest piece of wood you could see using with this setup?

      @@bruinsfan452 The blade itself is 3/4 inch wide, it's skewed/slanted in the plane, and the plane itself sits in a track - so, only 5/8 inch of the blade is actually exposed for cutting. I typically use 1/4 inch basswood but I've done 1/2 inch thick which worked fine (basswood is relatively soft though).

      @@WhittlinRich thanks appreciate the reply. How do you think it might handle something a bit harder like maple?

      @@bruinsfan452 I've used mine on regular 5/64-thick birch popsicle-sticks and some 1/8-inch thick beech craft sticks. I wouldn't go near my 1/2-inch thick oak though. It would probably cut up to 3/16-inch thick maple, but the pushing gets uncomfortable - it's a small-scale plane. A regular-sized block-plane in a shop-made shooting-board would be more robust for larger and harder woods.
