: Nick, what planes do you commonly use for making strips fit and

: mouth, block, rabbit? Size? I see the planes being used in your
: videos, but can't identify them. I am looking for a plane that
: will handle most tasks for building a Guillemot Double.

Most of my stripping work is done with a small low angle block plane. I have bronze Lie Nielsen that I like because it fits my hand well. There are probably better all-round block planes, but for tasks involved in stripping a boat, this little one works well.
