The best way I worked out of mounting this was to fabricate a mounting that would engage the operating handle of the plane.
I made this again from some scrap walnut. I could have used any other wood but had enough of this on hand to use. As previously stated this gives consistency throughout the project. Other woods that I intended to use were scraps of beech (used as the secondary wood in the drawers).
The fitted block was cut out with a bandsaw and shaped using a combination of oscillating spindle sander and hand sanding. |
The hanging bracket was positioned so the plane would be close to the carcass side |
The plane hung in position and like the bench planes clicks into position when it engages the magnet, |
Hope you are following this so far.
