    Why do you say that the low angle jack plane cannot be flipped and used to “ shoot” form the other direction? Mine is completely square to the sole both sides. It doesn’t know which direction it is going

      I don’t say that (and if I did it was in error). The dedicated shooting planes like the #51 and Veritas version cannot be flipped to shoot from both directions. The low angle jack can just fine.
