From
the forges of Knee Lielson, comes the next in a line of "featherweight"
hand planes: the No. 13 39/64 Fowl-up. This little gem features a soft,
overmolded front knob with a bill-shaped contour for greater comfort.
The body is made of waterproof duck-tile iron, so it's virtually
quack-proof. It's perfect for smoothing plucky featherboards, preening
those unruly dovetail joints and skimming the pupils off of bird's eye
maple. Woodworker's Journal's own Chris "The Tool Toady" Marshall gives
it a thumb's up, saying the Foul-up "glides through tough face grain
quicker than a duck on the wing". The Fowl-up Plane sells for $4.95,
payable in seven easy installments of 71 cents.
