I'm just finishing off an upgrade to the shed, and one of the tasks was to get the planes out of the (very heavy) drawer and next to the bench.
The bottom ledge has a lip that is shaped for the various handles and there are two rare earth magnets (20x5mm) buried in the back of the board behind the toe so that they sit about 2mm or less behind the face of the board. This gives good grip but is still fairly easy to remove each plane.
It's on a slope of about 10° off vertical. The larger planes just needed their own shelves without magnets, but a retaining lip.
At this point I haven't sealed the timber because a little voice keeps telling me that the timber will absorb any moisture between it and the sole of the planes. If I oil it then the moisture may stay around for Mr Rusty to have a drink. Any thoughts on that please?
