Well, so far, I have purchased a vintage Stanley Bailey #4, #5, and a Stanley Sweetheart #45 Combination Plough Plane, with cutters. I have some work to do to get them in service, but I have spent less than I would on the one Lie-Nielsen I was wanting. I want a longer jointer plane but considering comments by Paul, I believe I am going to go with a #6 and stick with that for a while.
Paul’s comments about the longer planes generating heat and distorting the metal have me a bit concerned about having to re-flatten that plane from time to time. Anyone have any experience with a corrugated plane? Would you get any less heat generated with that?
