Description
Simple blade guard designs for plane irons. I made this for my 5-1/2 jack plane iron, but will fit pretty much any iron you have about. It uses tape to hold it on. I'd considered a snap/prong of some fashion, or a friction fit, but irons vary considerably, and we all have tape.
Print in any plastic, I used PLA for mine.
Print vertically, with a brim. You want the layers perpendicular to the blade.
Included 2 versions, one in English, one in German.
