This is the easiest plane-building book of my 3 books. If you leave out the fine adjuster and just add a round steel adjuster k**b to the iron, you can also add the fine adjuster at a later date once you have more confidence.

Once again, I have been privileged to have had the opportunity of an advanced read of the third book in the “How to build an infill Plane” series written by Bruce Neville.
And what a delight it is to see. Bruce takes and guides the builder another logical progressive step forward in the plane building craft with his version of the Mathison improved mitre plane. Most of us know what a wonderful design concept this plane is. But if you don’t, it is considered by many to be the ultimate design concept of all hand dovetailed mitre planes. Originals command eye watering prices. I have seen many change hands among discerning collectors for sums that could easily buy a family car.
In his book, Bruce has given the builder all he needs to know to guide his journey to replicate a very nice version of his own that shares the pedigree and design concepts of this iconic plane.
It’s a step up in skill level to produce this little beauty, but it’s well worth the effort. Those who have completed the projects in the first two books should comfortably handle body and slightly more challenging three-dimensional infills.
