    Veritas Scraping plane rocks!

    I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I've had this plane for a few years any haven't used it a lot. Looking back, I thought that since planes are, in general, much more difficult to sharpen tune than card scrapers, I would need to master sharpening a card scraper before I could sharpen and use...

    Hand Plane score

    OK - so some of you know that my *other* hobby is Amateur Radio - so this morning I was at a ham radio picnic / swap fest. As I was browsing the tables of used gear for sale/trade/barter, I came across the hand planes you see below. I asked the older gentleman at the table how much he wanted...

    Wooden plane irons

    I have a couple of old wooden hand planes that I haven't used much. I took them out today to see what I could do with them. The irons in both were pretty dull, so I figured I'd give the Worksharp a workout. I was a little surprised when I took the irons out and saw how thick they are. Both of...

    Wood bodied plane repair question

    I went to loosen the depth stop on the fillister plane and the screw just came out. A bunch of fine sawdust came out so I know the threads inside the plane are toast. What would be the best way to fix it? I was thinking about turning a dowel to the size of the hole and gluing and redrilling the...

    Plane house

    I needed a fast project a couple of weekends back so found this plane birdhouse. This was a magazine project a few months back and is a fun quickie project. It makes me smile when I see it because it is so BIG. :gar-La; I changed the plan slightly on the second one to get the end grain off the...

    HF Filister/Rabbet Plane

    some ages ago, HF carried a nifty duplex rabbeting plane, and I scored one. I have somehow lost the fence for it, but find that it doesn't matter, at least for my use now - someday I may track down the spare parts on Grizzly. I pulled out this little HF gem today as I am installing a new...

    I completed a walnut cabinet to store some of my larger bench planes. Room for 2 each - No. 8, 7, 6, and 5. I also included storage in the doors for some AI chisels and mortise chisels and a few hand saws. I rough dimensioned with power jointer and planer but used hand tools for final...

    Plane hammer

    Last year I made my first Krenov style plane. I read David Finck's book which I highly recommend. In the book he describes how to make a plane adjusting hammer using 5/8" brass rod. After looking for a local source of 5/8 brass I found a 5/8 brass punch at harbor freight for ~6$ or so. I...

    Wall hanging plane till

    Here is a simple plane till I threw together: The carcass is dovetailed. However I cut one end of one week and the other end another week. Can you guess what I did wrong? Yup, I made pins on one end of the boards and tails on the others :(. Turns out ok because the top doesn't carry any...
