Hey, I resemble that.

When I made that Saw Rabbet Plane I had a stack of cherry with squirrelly
grain.  It was hard to rabbet it with a plane due to the grain reversal.
Since I used up that wood, I have never used the Saw Rabbet Plane again, as
a normal rabbet plane is so much more convenient to use.

Also, I'm not wrapping my mind around the use of this tool to precut kerfs
in a board before resawing.  I find the resaw works fine, and no precutting
is needed.  Similar to the rabbet plane working better than a Rabbet Saw, a
resaw works better than a kerfing saw.

Regards,
Steve - slowly getting around to some woodworking.
