This was the surprise I mentioned in my stories. I took advantage of another sale @bridge_city_tool_works had for their gen2 chopstick makers. For awhile now I had wanted their mini block plane. I had noticed that the chopstick kit come with a version of the mini block plane. So just bit the bullet and paid a bit more to get something fun. The only different I believe is that the sled guides on the side are plastic compared to the one on the regular that are metal. My buddy @baoloi_designcraft has both. I can say though that the plastic is like a high quality Delrin and looks pretty beefy. I was able to make a set last night. I messed up and didn’t follow the instructions the first time around but nailed the second. The iron did come pretty sharp from the factory but I did put a better edge on it that I will try for later today. It does come with its own honing guide which is much appreciated. So far love this kit and can’t wait to make my own blanks.
