No bench plane but a spoke plane

In the three weeks of vacation from the woodworking course I made a 12th scale wooden hammer. On the same way as we made the real size wooden hammer on the woodworking course.



We have worked hard last Friday. The hammer is ready. We finally were allowed to work with the band saw and belt sander. This makes life a bit easier. No hard work with a hand saw.
this is where I did start with today
the stem is decorated with the spoke plane




The finished hammer.


As homework we got the instruction to make the double through pin connection. Friday, at school, we planed the boards. After that we did saw wedges and the kerf for the wedges.
The boards with double through pin connection only need to be glued.
This will be our job next friday. Than again a work is finished and a connection is learned.
