I'm with you ET these little planes are amazing. Be sure to purchase the stamped steel one's, as shown in the picture, the cast steel one's just don't work. I have a number of very good planes, many of which have been mentioned in this and other threads. But I find them too large to do a rolling bevel. And too cumbersome to fine tune a small piece of wood. I know we all say you get what you pay for, and I agree, but this is one exception, at least for me and it looks like for ET also. I guess you could say it's "Plane and Simple"
