Pialla project
For this project we thought of a woodworking tool.
STRUCTURE
The planes are made from the union of wood and metal, and other materials. It is often the combination of a Bronze sole, with a hardwood core. The wooden plane is structured like this:
Body, usually in parallelepiped shape. It has a slit.
Handle, fixed to the log just behind the blade. Over time it has been improved to be more ergonomic;
Hole or jaw, which starts from the slot and crosses the stump, widening.
Blade or iron, sharp, is the cutting part of the tool that creates the chip;
Counter iron, serves to block the blade on the seat;
Wedge or wedge or gib, locks the iron in position in the slot;
