@smfield Yes I have to because the mechanism that shifts the blade is so worn out. The much softer than tool steel lever just could not stand up after all these years. I need to get a small piece of 4140 and fabricate a new one at some point....or just tap it with a hammer. Always enjoy hearing from you.
You tap the plane like the Japanese do for their Draw Planes.
