Worth what you pay

It's not a $200. plane but it's better than what Stanley sells at twice the price. It took over thirty hours of work to tune it to the exceedingly high standards of my college hand tools class, but when done it was as good as the $200. planes. Yes, I wish the mouth was adjustable and the other adjustments were smoother. It is worth what you pay and can be great if you invest some sweat equity.
