In this regard Fifty Years A Planemaker And User is closer to Krenov and his approach to working wood than the other books mentioned previously – though it should be noted that Cecil has his own unique style. It wouldn’t be my first choice for a beginner planemaker but is, in my opinion, a very good book to have in the library nonetheless. There is a final book on the making of wooden planes that I should mention.

By the way - Cecil's plane design is a bit different from the classical methods illustrated by Whelan and others. However, I would have a hard time recommending this as a stand-alone book for a prospective planemaker. Instead of wooden wedges, he documents the use of a "toggle" (which looks like a lever cap to me) held in the wood by a modified wood screw. The iron is retracted or advanced in the traditional way - with a mallet - but with no wedge loosening to counter. Other authors cover the techniques and details of construction more thoroughly.
