ive been a quaified carpenter n joiner 4 2 yr now n all my planes are stanlet n recoed planes old and new and all of them i can produce a shaving of half a thou of a shaving
becuse i brign them to a high standard
n also the blade n chip breaker i have replaced in my jack plane n ma joiner
it seems as if you have your blade to exposed on your joiter or you blade is not sharp also youse some beeswax or cannign wax on sole to reduce friction
The board you are planing against would be much better if it were secured better so you don't have to fight as much. With the number 8 I think it was or 7 in the beginning might be adjusted to cut a little to thick as you shouldn't have to force it so much, again wax will help out. Anyways those are just a few things that will hopefully help you out. Thanks for the video.
I'm am fairly new to handtools (1.5years) and I have amassed a decent collection of older stanleys. While I don;t use the modern ones I don;t think any plane should geta bad rap if you can easily tune it and produce good results. It's always nice to see instructional videos of these planes. I just wanted to add a couple suggestions that are things I've learned. Waxing the sole will make planing much smoother and requires less effort and will not interfere with finish.
Thanks for the kind words. I always have had a bit of trouble with my #7. It's a bit tricky to get set up consistantly. But it was ony $120. Where as a LN #7 at the time was $400. Overall I think it was worth the trade. But everyone has their own opinions this was just me throwing my $0.02 in the ring.
Hey guys, don't be afraid to leave negative feed back. I know this video sucks. The lighting is bad and you can't see the finish being left behind by the planes. I hopeing my future woodworking vids turn out better.
Great demo. I enjoyed this video.
