The chip breaker seats flush against the iron with zero wobble, which makes setting the mouth gap for fine shavings a lot less fiddly than I expected. Took me an evening to fit everything to my own body, but the tolerances on these components are spot-on for building a plane that cuts clean right ou

Assembling this kit was straightforward, and the blade seating is so precise that my first test cuts came out dead-square with zero tear-out. It’s quickly become my go-to for tenon shoulders.

The blade came perfectly flat and ready to hone, so I got it cutting clean tenons within an hour of assembly. The fit of the components is tight enough that the finished plane feels like a factory tool, not a weekend project.
