As a user of old molding planes, I approve! Using a chisel for the blade is genius.

Awesome! I love shop-made tools. They're beautiful in their basic usefulness, and they're 100% yours.

Nice job, very creative, and I'm sure that works wonderfully.
That being said, I'm not about to sell my plow planes, took me too long to accumulate them!! Ha Ha....

I read this as "Pillow plow plane" and had to find out what it was.

This is a plow plane for making grooves for plywood drawer bottoms. It is made from 4 layers of plywood glued together and a chisel for the iron. Since the skate of the plane is made from the same material I will put in the grooves it makes, the results are pretty much perfect every time.
It's ugly as hell but this thing cuts grooves like nobody's business. It can take a really thick shaving, 0.25mm or more on one go. It has been well worth the hour of building time I put into this.
This sounds awesome, but I can’t picture how you uses it. Could you post a small video?
Not OP but here's an example
Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for
