Block Plane http://www.AskWoodMan.com/
In this video I show how to install and adjust the blade into a block plane.
This is the 37th video in my complete sharpening series. In this series I will use the following tools and machines: Makita 9820 electric water stone with an after market sharpening jig, Bosch belt sander, Porter Cable belt sander, Mitutoyo combination square, General Sharpening Jig, DMT Diamond Stones, and various chisels, plane irons and scrapers.

@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.
