Here is a link to a photo stream featuring Holtey planes (the wood shavings sort) where you will find some awesome engineering. Notice how some of the bodies have the brass sides joined to the sole using "riveted metal dovetail joints"!!!!!! I must have a go at that sometime soon.
Has anyone seen this used anywhere else?
Oh, and if you want one you had better have deep pockets, as they are priced between £2500 to £7000.
I have chosen a photo of the brass adjuster knob to wet your appetites, if you move left to the newest pictures you will see a miniature version, and on the way, see the normal planes. Anyone who has gone that far, should visit the full website for a half hour of browsing with mouth wide open wonderment.....
