It's pretty bad, but it actually works! I used a lathe scraping tool for the iron.

I wanted to make a cove moulding on the underside of a vanity table top. So I needed a moulding plane. I didn't have an iron, and I wasn't sure how to go about making one, and then I realized I could use a lathe scraper tool, which I did, to some effect. It's not a great working plane, but it does work, and got the job done! I hope you like it and maybe it gives you some ideas.
