Shooting Board Project
Needed a shooting board that would work well with the Veritas Low Angle Bevel Up Jack plane.

|
We made the shooting board as a bench hook appliance. The unit was made out of 3/4 inch Baltic Birch plywood secured to a 1/2 MDF bottom. The fences and edges were made of oak. |

The plane chute was covered with UHMW-PE: |

The unit is tried out here with a #3 bevel up low angle smoother. |

But the best plane for the appliance is
definitely the #5 jack. |

The shooting board was finished with my BLT rub.

After purchasing a Lie-Nielsen #51 shooter plane, I opted for a 51 Shooter™ from Evenfall Studios... |
