I never thought I'd own a cute tool. But my wife bought me one of these:
Well, I sharpened it up with some Shapton glasstones, and the plane now cuts shavings so thin, I can see through it. This is awesome!
NIce tool - and nice drive-by with the Shaptons!
Ahhhhhh..., how cute.
I like the little box it comes in. It almost looks like a jewelery box.
Where do you see using this?
I see me cleaning out 1/4" dadoes and cleaning up little tenons, like in a model trebochet.

Nice. You'll love it, I'm sure.
Cool! I want one. I can certainly see where this could be useful cleaning up or adjusting narrow dadoes and other places where a full-size shoulder plane just won't fit.
That was my first thought after seeing it. Tight spaces.
Really?

You have to wait for the ladies to tell you it's cute, or it doesn't count.
