Pros

This trimming plane is incredibly useful. It does a surprisingly good job of rounding the edge of a board. The blade is easy to sharpen and reinstall exactly where it is needed.

This little guy performs very well. It is not flimsy and looks like it will last forever.

Sharp and maneuverable. Works amazingly well for small cuts. For my work, it does the job of producing the size shavings i was needing.

Perfect little device for shaping balsa on a model airplane. Use tiny taps with a small hammer to adjust, great for profiling an airfoil.



Cons

Tiny piece of junk. The bottom is painted and not flat.

    The blade doesn’t fit snug so it can take a few attempts to set it but for the price it’s definitely does the job
