They differ only in the I’ve studied panel-raising planes spring angles (the tilt of the plane off made circa the late 18th and early 19th vertical) and skew of the iron (which centuries, including one made by Aaron creates a slicing cut across the grain to Smith, who was active in Rehoboth, reduce tear-out). The bed angle of the Smith plane is 46º, and the iron is skewed at 32º.

    Howard Brady WOOD DESIGNS Copyright © 2019 by Howard L. Brady Note: Every item shown in this album was an original, one-of-a-kind design. The design process from concept through crafting to the finished item is a source of incredible satisfaction to me, and a process that extends well beyond woodworking into music composition, and (with my brother) creation of innovative educational materials. A few years before I retired, Dave Campbell, a senior engineer and friend at Skydata where I worked, remarked that as a writer of technical communications documents for satellite communications equipment, I was an “information designer.” Those were kind works, and, I hope, accurate. This octogenarian loves designing. ii Toys for my great-grandson, Mason: The front-end loader and dump truck were my first major toy designs, built November 2017. Most solid wood is poplar, plywood parts are Baltic birch, dark wood is Indian rosewood, from a local tree destroyed in one of the 2004 hurricanes. Metal parts were aluminum (truck bed edge rails, front end loader bucket and crosspiece), brass (truck steering components) and stainless steel (all fasteners, operating levers). Lever and knob above truck cab controls steering. 1 Built March 2018: Toy box for Mason’s third birthday, May 6th: 2 November 2018: Toy flat-bed wrecker and grumpy wrecked race car for Mason’s Christmas. One of Mason’s parent’s close friends is Tim Daugherty, who races his #88 car (so far NOT wrecked) in figure-8 races at the Antelope Valley Fairgrounds in Southern California. I hope he didn’t mind my version.
