Default I finally used it!

It's been sitting on my bench, unused, for several years but today out of necessity I finally used my David Micro Plane!

The supplied half-round conduits for the LTV Scout I'm working on were WAY too thick, and rather than spending hours sanding them thinner I tried the Micro Plane on a scrap piece and I was successful (partially due to the Herculean thighs.)

After "The Vixen" got the bleeding to stop I tried it on the actual long half round for the model's booster. Now I just need to sand some concavity into the flat side of the half round.

YAY! I learned a new skill!
