Working on the Coffin Smoother

I am still waiting for the steel to make the iron and fit it to the bed.  So while I am waiting I decided to make the wedge and the start to shape the body.
To make the wedge I made a jig to hold the wedge at 10.5 degrees so I could run it through the table saw.  I used double back tape to hold it in place.  Then I used bench chisels to do the rest of the work.
I used the bandsaw to rough out the shape and the plane floats to start to smooth it.
Here is today's video
