    Butt Mortise Plane

    This plane was among others I purchased at a garage sale about 25 years ago. It didn't have an iron and I never bothered to try and find one. This was not one of those old poor widows who didn't know the value of the tools. I've never used it (obviously). Don't know the maker, could be Lie-Nielsen, can't make out the name on it. Thought those in the know here might have some feedback. For those who have never seen one, it's a plane to do mortises for butt hinges. It takes a 3/4" wide iron.

    I saw one of those on ebay today, I'm still not sure exactly how it is used. Is the viewing window sized mouth exactly for that?
