I really don't do much woodworking, but am very interested in discussions on the tools. I think I'll just sit back and throw out a comment or two until I get used to this forum. -w

Here's another Damascus plane. It's a little guy (those are 1/4" squares). It's stuffed w/ironwood. I call it a squirrel tail block plane...note the acorn finial.

Bed angle is 11 degrees, and the iron is 25 degrees. Can't get much lower with the bed angle IMHO. -w

Welcome to the forum.
You might not do much wood working in your shed but I see that it is wood work related. One other thing there are other section to the forum such as metal work.
