great Job. actually paul sellers always puts his plane down the way you do and said that if you put it on it's side it's bad pratice.

Great video!

What kind of stone were you using? Great video.

[@Brads-Woodshed]

I truly appreciate that! It’s a DMT diamond stone. They are a bit expensive, but IMO they cut quicker than a regular stone, and for me are a better setup!

[@daviddunagan4185]

Thanks for your quick response. What grit do you use? I've been using Japanese water stones. Too messy.

@@daviddunagan4185 DMT usually rates theirs as coarse, fine, extra fine, etc. mine is a Fine grit, best I can tell it’s a 600 grit
