Collin, If you put a hole in the middle where the blade intersects the “V” Grove the shavings will exit out the top like a regular plane. Great job, works great.
It looks good, and I bet you were glad that you had the scrap pieces to make it with because it's hard to throw stuff away, I always think if I thow stuff away and then one day I'm looking for a little scrap piece either to add to something I'm making or to assist me in making something and I've thrown it out then I'm going to have to waste a new piece of wood because I had no scraps left Glen from the UK
That is a great idea and I have found when I tilt the saw blade those digital angle finders can put you right on (just zero it to the saw table then attach to blade & set it
Good project Colin, I've needed a little chamfer plane for years. Now with the idea planted perhaps I will get out into the shop. Thanks for the motivation Colin love your ideas.
EXCELECT job Collin. Definitely on the "Make" list. My only suggestion would be to take the point off the last two screws hat hold the blade in place. That will give you a bit more holding power and not damage the blade when you have to re-set it after sharpening. Thanks ! !! !!!
I love this edge trimmer! I think I can get the parts, but I am curious about where you put the blade. Would the blade also work in the middle of the block? I'm thinking that if the block were longer, the chamfer would be more consistent like a plane if the blade were further back so the device is firmly fit on the board. Seeing it built in person might be different as I am going by what I see with the camera angle. Thank you. Excellent idea and I have already experienced usages for one of these. Wish I already had it a few days ago, LOL
Seeing the final shape of the block you used, it would be neat if one of your artistic friends could paint it to look like a shuttle craft from the original Star Trek TV show.
I've been looking for a good corner plane to round the edges of 1 x 4's for door trim. Some planes have bad reviews and I'm tired of using an 1/8th inch roundover bit and routing. You have to keep moving the clamps and flipping the board etc. Lot's of dust in the air. etc.
Do you have a video for your grinder jig? And great video, love the pace. Update: Ok you do, that's awesome, thanks for sharing your experience with us!
Super little tool Colin and very enjoyable vid. Do you think something line a utility knife blade (what we'd probably call a Stanley knife blade here) would stand in for your jointer knife? Thank you mate, enjoyed that.
WoodWorkWeb Yeah, I guess. Can you suggest something other than the jointer knife? I haven't had my planer/thicknesser long enough to have any old knives lying around!
Hi Colin. Do You have in your video list the grinder stand shown in the minute 5:11 of this video? Where can I see the diagram? I want to make my own. Thanks from Venezuela
I have a timber frame home with 1 inch chamfers. I have about 6 lineal feet of chamfers the timber framers missed. Would a modified version of your plane. A 1 inch router bit is costs a packet.
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I have some questions: I do no't have a jointer and therefore also no spare jointer knives. Can I use a chisel? When you put the angle to 45 degrees with your engineering square, did you afterwards check how exact your digital angle measure is? Which way is it possible to determine if the grain direction is from left to right or from right to left?
I'm sure a chisel would work just as well as a jointer knife. You could also try the blade from a miniature hand plane like the Stanley 12-101 or the GreatNeck LSO (those only cost $7 or $8).
Yes, you could use a chisel blade, but you should be able to find some cheep plane blades on ebay or amazon if needed. Yes, double checking you angles on a project like this is a great idea. You should be able to look at the grain and tell the direction, like looking at the hair on a dogs back. Thanks for watching, Hans!
Good job! I think I would have left more "meat" where the screws go, seems like it will break off there, but for the first try sounds like it's working. Unless it is Hard wood and wont break like the end grain of pine.
hi. when i am cutting an ikea kitchen laminate counter top with a jigsaw using a downcut jigsaw blade, do i need to turn the laminate over and cut from the underside? thanks, Jill.
Cut from the top side if your using a down cut blade. Make sure you hold onto it well because if they grab they have a tendency to jump. Mask off the surface with masking tape also so you don't scratch the counter. Make sure that blade is sharp or it'll have a tendency to wander.

Very handy and very easy to make, a must in your shop.
Thks Colin.

You're Welcome, Matt!
Great vid as usual. One of the best parts of woodworking, solving problems for yourself
Thanks for watching!
That's super cool... it's hard to get a consistent chamfer with just a block plane. Cheers! Chris.
Thanks for watching!
You are a genius. I enjoy watching your videos.
A great little device, something I will have to make. Thanks Colin
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Nice tool to break the edge. I’m going to make one. Thanks for the idea. 👍

Simple but awesome gadget. I most certainly have a use for it to chamfer wood and just maybe aluminium.
Added this to my to-do list
Thank You!
Great job, Colin. Very well done sir.
Thanks for watching!
Great home made tool. Thanks for showing us how to do it.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!

I was hoping he had a video for that too!
Such a great tool you made, Colin!!
Thanks for watching!
thats an awsome jig man, you are so creative!
Love it Colin.. I think I will make one. I have some blades that was a miss order that are brand new to use.
Thanks for watching!
Nice work Colin regards MIke
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the tip, I will rebuild as soon as possible
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Fantastic job Colin. Cheers, Huw
Thank you!
Super little tool Colin and very enjoyable vid. Do you think something line a utility knife blade (what we'd probably call a Stanley knife blade here) would stand in for your jointer knife? Thank you mate, enjoyed that.
It could, but the sharp edge won't last long. You would be replacing the blade all the time. Thanks for the watching, Mark.
WoodWorkWeb Yeah, I guess. Can you suggest something other than the jointer knife? I haven't had my planer/thicknesser long enough to have any old knives lying around!
Mark McCluney I was thinking the same. Possibly an old chisel cut down? Doesn’t need to be full width of the block.
Gracias
To find which way the grain was going, does the darker loops get smaller in that direction? Shabbat shalom
Nice, the two screws you put into the face, to hold the blade. Did you file the tips down flat, or leave them pointy?
I left them pointy and didn't have any issues. Thanks for watching!
Awesome..👌👌
Thank You!
I guess I know what I am doing in the morning!
Can I use your idea? Clean job. The only difference, I would add a chip clearance notch.
So many good and great ideas, not enough time or materials.
Thanks for watching!
Genius

@@knecht105 Thanks for your reply. I'm going to try if I can manage the "dog trick" on wood.
Could you use a Stanley knife blade if you can't lay your hands on an old jointer blade
Good job! I think I would have left more "meat" where the screws go, seems like it will break off there, but for the first try sounds like it's working. Unless it is Hard wood and wont break like the end grain of pine.
Neat! I'd love to see a close up of the edge it put on the board.
Thanks for watching!
GRAZIE !! bell'orologio ;) ...e se volessi fare un angolo con raccordo di raggio 2 o 3 mm? grazie
Hey Colin! Great project! Can you send me the rest of that jointer blade so I can make one? Lol!! Thanks for sharing!!
lol ... You're Welcome, Laura!
Eistein Colin!
Thank You!
Hi Colin, i enjoy your stuff, great keep it up.....greetings from Sri Lanka
Thanks for watching!
Nice simple design. Should there not be some of the vee ahead of the blade?
Класс!
Maybe put the blade in deeper and use longer screws for better bite into the meat of the wood. Just trying to help for the next model! ☺
Next project, the Angle Grinder Metal Cutting Rig. Maybe you already did a video on that and I missed it. :\ Cheers! Chris.
Here ya go ruclips.net/video/Jcmqv1mwHE4/видео.html
Surely with your 45* “frog” your bevel should be down?
Muy bien sepillo
Good timing on a useful project. Thanks much. I clicked "like", so another troll bites the dust.
Thanks for watching!
Wow
Nkce champher-plane/edge trimmer. Does the overhang for the front screws seem strong enough to last?
So far so good. It's not taking off much material, so I think the overhang will stand the test of time.
GOOD
Thank You!

@@fireball570 thanks. i will be purchasing a new blade for this and turning off the orbital setting on the jigsaw as well.
like it.
Thank You!
Reminder to folks; always go with the grain direction especially cedar
Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching!
Do you think I could use a razor blade instead of a jointed blade?
I think it will dig into the wood and bend.
You'll need something thinker. Thanks for watching!
ممتاز ممتاز🙏👍🎓
why not use a wedge and place a chisel there instead - just another idea - thanks for this Col
👍
Won't it be better to have the blade more in the middle of the plane?
With it at the front you can run almost up to a shoulder. In the middle you would be a few inches short.
For this style, I like to have it close to the front for the Jason mentioned. Thanks for watching!
😮😅❤
yo im hungry
SCORE!
it looks like a mean little whale
