LOVE THIS!! bo Wyatt Childs http://www.wyattchildsinc.com
I assume its effectiveness is due to the “nasty, big, pointy teeth!” (with apologies to Monty Python).
Can’t tell if that’s a tricorn hat or a possum on his head. At least it all makes working in a cold shop easier.
Brilliant. How many carrots did a plane such as this typically consume?
Where exactly is his right hand?
I was hoping no one would ask that.
I was surprised it took 5 comments.
It looks like a combination Jack and Rabbit plane to me.
I’m waiting for the Canadian Version with a Beaver
Don’t poke the bear.
And yet another reason Canada is better.
Looks awfully like a hare not a rabbet (rebate). (Even like Albrecht Durer’s hare?).
Which would make it a hare-plane — uhh — “this thing won’t fly”.
Oh, and looks more like a ferret than a possum on his head – and if it doesn’t get to catch the hare it’ll want a rebate.

Danny (or Dave),
You have solved it. That is Durer’s ‘Hare’ and it is ‘a hare-planed idea’. The hat is the original tricorn hat in Plate 14.
Surprised not to see some hairy bench dogs.
That’s so coney.
