Here's a few new handplanes i've just recently finished.
This guy came from the beavis and butthead shortboard i found in an alley. pretty psyched on it. it was kinda hard glassing it with it so small. I actually glassed it once, and it came out crappy, so i sanded it smooth, spray painted it white, and went for it again. It came out better this time. I'm psyched on the top a lot, but the bottom is a bit messy looking still...
Got a few channels in it, one deep middle one, adn two shallower side ones, so we'll see how it works. The messy lap lines show quite a bit, especially in the blue colored area, which i think is maybe from me not mixing the color in well enough, or using enough color.... idk, plenty more board from that beavis shortboard to make about 5 more handplanes i figure. probably try to cut lap on the next one to see how that turns out.
This is the latest wooden one i've done. took it to kauai, but only used once when it was close outs. psyched on teh shell under the palm, this came from my brothers initial handplane, as he thought this up somehow. haven't seen any other handplanes with a bump at your hand, but it's a pretty good feel.
bottom side (forgot to woodburn the initials and date, wish i had, as it would look better than sharpie on wood)
