Panel plane

This is the third dovetailed plane I have finished.
It is a companion to the jointer (qv).
Here the are together

This panel plane is 17” long by 2+3/4” wide. The iiron is by Robert Sorby and set at 50 degree pitch, to take a fine cut on difficult tinder..
It was all done by hand, apart from using a bench drill. I found, on assembly, it was at least 8 thou hollow, so you can imagine I had to do a lot of filing!
