I made this planer in my workshop with mahogany sapelly wood. The irons were made by a blacksmith, my friend, from carbon steel

Nice looking plane ! If I may share some informations . A Japanese plane iron is wedge shaped(tapers in thickness), which is what holds the blade in place(wedged in the groove), and also has a scooped back(Urasuki) to make flattening the back easier. As for the body, the sole is not flat the entire length , but it's scooped out so that there're really only two or three sections touching the wood when planing, to reduce friction and make the feel of the cut dramatically lighter .

That is a beautiful plane. Now I want to make my own, too.

アマチュアしかも外国人が作ろうという意欲は凄い。改善すべき点はあるが、努力は評価する。

You make it look so easy. I'd buy one from you because then I won't have to fix the lazy factory work of a store bought one.

It’s a great work but far from Japanese Kanna. I’m a Japanese carpenter in Kyoto, Japan .
