modified plane board

[TheHeat]

Great Imaging and Visual Directions for construction of a Plane Board....After constructing several plane boards, both with wood and plastic....the wood is excellent especially if painted with an exterior paint or weather proofing....The Plane board that you have constructed demonstrates a "half of a Plane board which works great for most and is fairly easy to transport...As a matter of fact at Pine Needles, we used Bag stands rotated around backwards as supports rather than building leg supports...however, if you want to have a "cool" plane board go for it all....with the legs and the hinges...a "Full Monty". A full size plane board... just double the face of the plane and then use 8 ft 2x4's to frame it and as support legs to hold it up ....I recommend Doubling the frame for a full size due to eay warping of the face of the plane. I would recommend a Full size for a permanent location.

Annikan,

I just realized what you were talking about. I guess I've never seen a full plane board. When you said half, I just assumed you were talking about the backswing 1/2. I now assume that you are talking about extending it up, so as to have a plane board all the way to the top of the backswing. That would be way cool. I'll have to think about this.
