wedge<p>This must be a cooper’s (tonnelier’s) plane. It’s huge. That iron is at least 10cm wide. If so, we would be looking at the bottom of the plane beam (edge side faces up). But I don’t see any place for mounting the spindle legs. Granted the length is cut off in this photo. Speaking of which, it seems rather long, even for a cooper’s plane. I’m not totally convinced. Paul Bunyans’s plane, maybe.</p><p><a href="https://woodworking.group/tags/woodworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woodworking</span></a> <br><a href="https://woodworking.group/tags/handtools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>handtools</span></a></p>

wedge<p>I’ve not bought an old tool lately. I was jonesing. So I picked up this older Darex 110 block plane. 5 €.</p><p>Darex made a few block plane sizes, small to large: 101, 102, 110, 130, 131. The smallest, most rare, is a tiny thing, almost like a luthier’s plane. The two largest (always frog green paint) have reversible iron positions.</p><p>The 110+ have knobs. The oldest have wood knobs with screws, like this one. Then plastic (no visible screw) in one of 3 colors.</p><p><a href="https://woodworking.group/tags/woodworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woodworking</span></a> <br><a href="https://woodworking.group/tags/handtools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>handtools</span></a></p>

wedge<p>Bench in a sculpture’s atelier. I’ve no clue what those wood bottle looking things are along the top. But the handle bars on the leg vice are unique. I like the touch of carving there, too. I’d consider doing that with a ‘W’ somehow.</p><p><a href="https://woodworking.group/tags/woodworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woodworking</span></a> <br><a href="https://woodworking.group/tags/handtools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>handtools</span></a> <br><a href="https://woodworking.group/tags/workbench" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workbench</span></a></p>
