New Rasp and reworked mill tooth plane

I ll try to get a pic up for you, I might be able to find the two, " pony" plains that I invented, and a slightly used replacement,I think Brian's got eaten by the dog, Michaels has probably been buried ,Ricks ,if still in the freezer will be available for viewing after the ice age in Maine has passed".......

Thanks Rick,

Since you and Michael mentioned that the file side of the mill plane didn t seem to do much, the manufacturer sent over these options as something that could be incorporated to better the results , please let me know what you think,.....these guys are listening!

I only had two of each and felt that your input, yours and Michael were more important than mine.

Thanks for taking the time.

The samples were sent of cutting edge configurations of what they had on hand, i don t believe that the curverd tooth mill was intended ,it was the file side that they thought might be considered, that said , that curved tooth will make you get your rasp stroke down pretty consistent, given that if your at all sloppy bout it you will go from one side to another.

thank you
Ray

so would it be safe to say that both you and Michael prefer the file side of #2 to be put on the file side of the
P plane along with the tooth configuation on the last P plane that you used?

thnks

Moral of the story is........................do not attempt to work when temp is below - 19 f ?

We had a few corrected mill tooth horse files at the Summit for inspection, the corrections were made in changing the fine side to the tooth configuration as suggested by Rick and Michael and overall cleaning up the product. A preliminary batch of 250 pieces is now being manufactured with 45 pcs being sent along initially, plan is to be ready by the middle of the last week of February.

I used one yesterday for three trims and was very satisfied. Target price is $54.00 usd each.

Michael,

I have 3 pcs on hand now, should have approx 50 pcs in 2 weeks time, followed up by 200 pcs in about 5 weeks then full shipments. The timing has to do with production and then having them sharpened at a different location.

would you like one of the pcs that I have on hand?

if so , i ll send you one for the $54.00 , then you can decide if it fits your requirements.

Thanks

good luck with this Ray, looking forward to seeing one.
