11-sa dovetailed smoothing / finishing plane

11-sa smoothing plane components before assembly.
Tapping for adjuster bush after boring.
I have so many nice photos I have decided to put a gallery here for those who are interested. There is no text just pictures. It is a shame that the pictures had to be downsized.
