Oops I forgot to update! Anyway, I've made a simple form and I've also glued the top and back together (pictures attached).
Next, I'll be thicknessing the wood, but I've run into a problem. I bought a Stanley #4 plane from Amazon, and the chipbreaker is screwed on incredibly tight. I can't even move it! Anyone know how to get it to budge?
Never mind about the pictures. I'm having trouble uploading them for some reason (you can find them on my blog if you'd like).
