So Im shuffling through some junk and I find this ” plane” with oak burr’s stuck in the blade. Any ideas of what its used for ? Has the word Loncrumb stamped on it along with Casey & Co auburn ny .. the blade is curved on the end as is the wood itself.

It is a beading plane that is missing the wedge that holds in the iron.

For love or money his name is not coming to me or the name of the show, but it is on PBS every Sat morning and is sponsored by State Farm Insurance, he wears a funny hat and walks to work (a shed) with business men and then crosses a creek etc. He does everything the old way. Someone will know who I am talking about.

Roy Underhill. A memory is an evil thing sitting there waiting to make a fool of me. Maybe it comes from playing to much of that foot stompin’ country music.

I think the show with the planes was in the 2008-09 season and the Thomas Jefferson piece. It could have been the two episodes about the jointers tool box too.

If I’m going to be a hero (and I’m chuckling as it type that) I might as well be a super hero. I paid $8 for that saw.
