In my shop the shooting board is standard equipment. Once you learn to sharpen and use a hand plane, a good shooting board will do more to increase the accuracy of your work than any other tool or shop implement. Here is why mine works so well:
Made with an MDF base and a Baltic Birch plywood top for stability and long wearing properties.
Formed over a curved mold, the board has a subtle cup on the underside, this keeps the plane standing plumb.
Fence and cleat made from abuse-resistant and tough tropical hardwood.
Fence glued and screwed to stay secure and square.
Rabbet cut in Baltic birch to prevent plane from cutting shooting board.
Fence positioned several inches from the rear to keep plane running straight.
Available in left and right hand models.
Available in two sizes, 24" x 12" and 18" by 12".
If you prefer to buy rather than build, let us send you one that is ready to use.
I'd had made a shooting board several years ago, which worked well. But it needed to be replaced, so I thought I'd give the Cosman shooting board a try. Out of the box one can see that it's well engineered and nicely made. After using it for a couple of months, I can say it's also easy to use and as near as I can tell, very accurate, certainly well within the requirements for wood working. As a bonus, it's far more attractive than my home made board!
Well engineered and well made, if you need a shooting board then they don’t get better than this.

I wish I would have invested in shooting board years ago, it has help with joinery immensely. I recently made a cutting board and used my shooting board to square and fine tune pieces for a southwest native design made the process much easier than trying to use a table saw and most of all safer. It is a quality tool for making square and perfect joints, Thanks Rob and crew
While the finish is really good, the premium price doesn’t deserve an MDF board. Disappointed! That too, after such a long and eager wait. I’ll check the squareness and revert but the MDF is a real Put Off! Broken corners with a couple of months for sure. And MDF can’t be restored once broken. Had I been in Canada I would have returned it
The single best upgrade I made to my hand plane. I was cutting dead square instantly, makes the process of woodworking that much more satisfying. Highly recommended.
