Smoothing Plane Save time and effort with these patterns for making the steel sides and the hardwood tote and cheeks.

Side Pattern. To make the steel sides, I printed two copies of the pattern below. One is used to make a hardboard template. And the other is used as a guide for drilling all the holes.

All of the parts for the infill smoothing plane from ShopNotes 121 feature curves or irregular shapes. You can eliminate quite a bit of layout time by using the fullsize patterns on these two pages.

Rear Infill. You’ll only need one pattern to cut out and shape the tote. When making the cheeks, keep in mind that they end up as mirror images. So the pattern is only used to cut the final shape.

NOTE: ALL HOLES ARE %/32" DIA.
