After 50 years of waiting, i got a Razor Plane
Thanks to Dr Mustaq (mustak on this forum) who also sent 15 blades+1 in the Plane.
Will last me a long time.
(He also sent me 2 great razor saw blades etc...)

What a pleasure for a chuck glider guy.
My RCTLG wing took me eight hours to sand.
With a razor plane it may not have taken me over eight minutes.

Since it is past midnight, not posting pics/videos.

But I will, if anyone is curious about funny things that make an old guy happy.

yes - a razor plane is a great tool to have -
I have a David one with interchangeable blades
and a Chinese one with a carpenter type
of chisel blade.


A small tip - slide it across a newspaper sheet before use
each time... will sharpen the edge.

Since 1980 I had been seeing the Master Air Screw Razor Plane ads in Aeromodelling Magazines and always wanted one. When I got back into the hobby, and encountered imports from HK, it was too good to believe.

I got mine last year from HK  ;D ;D
