  Hi Ralph , glad my comments have encouraged you along the way  :thumbup: , I am glad you have re posted them photos as some how I must have missed them first time around. If the photos were just posted under wood wroking tool collection , I dont think that many people would even realise they were small scale  :clap: they are that good they just look like the real thing  :bow: :bow:  :drool: :drool:
  I hesitated before mentioning the rear knurled nut Ralph as it seemed like knocking a beautiful thing but I also know sometimes when I make things its easy to get so used to the item as you make it , all looks spot on to yourself yet someone else looking at it will spot something that is not in tune with the rest, I thought you would be on to it anyway , once you had got some shut eye  :lol:  . I know with oil painting and also doing stained glass work sometimes veiwing your project in a mirror can show up things you just could not see looking at things the normal way, it sort of tricks the eye to  seeing it in a fresh light.

  keep up your fine work Ralph , I for one have really enjoyed seeing it , thanks for posting  :beer:

 Cheers Mick
Harvey Melvin Richards:
Very nice work Ralph. I have a Lie-Nielsen Scraper Plane that I love to use. Your model makes my small plane look like a monster.

Thanks Harvey.  I tried to model this miniature after a Lie-Nielsen.  I' love to have a full scale tool.  Aren't you the lucky one?  Ralph

Ralph, with your skills, can't you just make a full-size replica?

Andy.
