The A1 Panel / Jointer Plane


This plane is designated A1 and the same profile/pattern was used through the entire range of sizes. Usually starting at 13½" to 17½" for panel planes, and 17½" to 28½" for jointers.

The picture above shows a 22½" A1 on which I used a particularly nicely patterned piece of Rosewood, and the picture below shows a 28½" Jointer.
