I’m looking to get my first hand plane. I plan to use it mostly to clean up end grain and make some minor adjustments fitting drawer faces. I’ve decided to go with Lie Nielsen but I’m not sure which one.
I know there is no such thing as a one size fits all plane, so which plane would you suggest as the first plane? and why?
I don't know a lot about hand planes so detailed "why" information will be very helpful.
So far I’ve narrowed my choices too:
No. 60 1/2 Block Plane
No. 60 1/2R Rabbet Block Plane
No. 102 Low-Angle Block Plane
Are their any other Lie Nielsen planes I should be considering? Why?
Thanks in advance for the input!
