Interesting brass sided smooth plane



This plane is constructed with interesting components. The sides are using think brass, the sole is wood, the iron is secured with a bailey type frog and it has the Lingum Vitage? handle and tote. It's a good design becasue the wood sole slide easy against the wood, the frog for easy adjusting and the brass for rust free.
