In Response To: Tools: planes (Bill Hamm)

I have the large Buck Bros. block plane from the HD and it works fine. I used it without sharpening the blade and still made a paddle with it. I have since sharpened the blade and it does work better. I think they are 35? dollars. I also have a smaller hand plane from Stanley that worked but was too small for a class. It would take too much effort to be fun.
Of course at 35 dollars (for the cheap HD plane), would a cheap power plane that could be shared make more sense???
