Hopefully people are finding my wood working journey vaguely interesting maybe even benefiting from my mistakes . So this post is a quick thank you to those few people who regularly drop by the blog and offer me advice, and take the time to comment.
On that note, I would like to ask you all - and yes I have read the forums.
Has anyone who has paid big money and purchased a Lie Nielsen plane had buyers remorse and in hindsight wished they had gone the (much cheaper) refurbed Stanley route?
The reason I ask is I am considering purchasing a LN no#5 with two blades (heavily and slightly cambered) to act as my go to plane for smoothing, roughing, shooting end grain and flattening. I like the idea of being able to reduce the mouth without having to remove the blade each time as they are based on the Stanley Bedrock design. They are however - super expensive!
Later and as funds allow Id also like a LN no#7 and these two planes (no#5 & no#7) would cover almost all my needs.
I do already own new (read - poor quality) Stanley no#4 and no#6, which I might sell.
So what are your thoughts or criticisms on the above ideas?
