Here are some pics on my first attempt at molding. They are my first ever, hard maple, and from watching his video a week ago. I think with a bit of practice and patience, I should be putting your planes to good use. Great planes!

What People Are Saying:
Andrew Gore: I've been using [your wooden bench dogs] and they have been great! I prefer them greatly to my brass Veritas dogs.
Dave Ray: Hi Chris, got the bench dogs Sat. 5 May, been using them ever since. For years I have been using brass dogs, love them, yet was always a little worried about nicking plane blades, never did but was always on my mind. I have made my own wooden dogs but was never satisfied, wanted to try yours once I saw them. So far really like them. Thank you.
Tom Iovino:
RUFF! Bench dogs are some of the handiest things you can have for your workbench... Many of these bench dogs are metal. And, should you plane past the edge of your work and your plane iron hits the metal dog, well, get ready to do some serious sharpening.And, if you really crank down on the pressure to hold the work down, metal dogs are more likely to mar the face of the board they bear against.
That’s why wooden dogs are preferred… and that’s where the folks at Time Warp Tools can help.
Stew H.:
I was at WIA and got a couple of your dogs and happened to pull one out today and use it and thought “WOW these are GREAT!”
Dave B.:
...the moulding planes performed superbly.
Shannon Rogers:
I put in some time and stuck 4 profiles with the planes this weekend. First, they perform very well and there isn’t a noticeable difference in the results on the moulding from other moulding planes.

Nice work, Kirk. And in hard maple, no less! Your mouldings look very crisp.

Another Newfoundlander displaying work in the Kitchen. Hmm, I am showing my wife this one. She thinks Matthew and I are the only ones that bring work in the kitchen. Very nice work Kirk!
