- I make a 1/2" (#8) round molding / moulding plane with some scrap wood. This type of plane can be used along with a rabbet plane to make coves or with other "hollows and rounds" to make more complex moldings. For more info on this type of plane, google search for "Caleb James Roubo moulding planes"

This channel is underrated.
Thank you so much!
I love this plane making series so much
I've seen a few people make these and you just seemed to have simplified it down to looking a more achievable. Thank you. It's back on my to-do list.
Glad to hear it!
Those shavings are comming out of the plane so smooth :). Really great work Frank.
Thanks!
All the new love for French/Roubo style planes makes me so happy, they’re fun to make, especially when you make moulding planes with more complex profiles.
Those molding shavings are gorgeous (not to mention the plane !). Great job, thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing Frank. Love seeing a woodworker enjoying the journey and striving for excellence.
What a thrill to see those shavings jump out! and then see the smooth profile take shape.! This is one of the times that seems beyond ones capability; you imagine the complicated hours needed to accomplish... but. no, its just one step after the other and none of them are "beyond"! Thanks! and congratulations!!
Love the molding plane, keep up the great videos
Beautiful! I'm impressed by the work and also by the beautiful shape you keep your tools.
Wow! that is true Fred Flinstone wood working. Amazing skills with plain hand tools.
And now you made the sole of the future hollow plane.
Thanks for another great video and yet another idea for my neverending to-do list! 😃 Congrats on the build, the plane looks fantastic and seems to work really well too. And fair play for trying something new - it's always good to grow and expand your expertise. Tool making is awesome!
Thanks Patrick! It definitely opened my eyes to future possibilities!
great job. loved this!
Great video. Encouraging to see how precise you can be without all the fancy/expensive tools. It’s all about patience and personal skills..and maybe some stubbornness:)
Haha absolutely! Thanks man!
Love the sound of a nice sharp gouge.
This is pretty impressive!! Your skill level is really on display. Love the attention to detail like rounding over with wedge in to account for flex.
Yes, there is something genuinely impressive about being able to make ones own tools.
Great, straight forward build. I’ve always wanted to take a swing at making my own molding plane, but feels intimidating. Thanks for posting this!
Never going to make this but just loved watching the video. Thank you.
Wow you made that look easy. may have to give this a try down the road.
Nice work!
I’m one of those that’s frankly surprised that everything around us in society light traffic lights, light switches, the internet, cars running, etc… actually work with the regularity that they do. I can certainly understand the satisfaction of building a body, escapement, wedge, and iron that did anything with a concerted effort in the first try 👍 that they were all at least functioning means you’ll get to the desired result in tweaking/troubleshooting so much faster
Just amazing!
That oven is freakishly clean! Also, sweet plane haha
LMAO yeah my wife wanted a new one and I haven't exploded any potatoes in this one yet!
Bet his wife made him clean it first, that is what mine would do.
Love the video!
wow the level of detail is and craftsmanship is crazy! Great work!
I appreciate it man! 👊
Great video and fabulous plane! I picked up that small Stanley tape measure you use last time I was at Highland Woodworking and love it. Thanks!
Right on man! Perfect tape measure for bench work!
What a great video. I really enjoy your content.
Thanks! Im very excited to get the ball rolling this yr
That was a great video, it was sharp, snappy and informative.
Thank you! :)
cool, good job
A very nice tool construction.
Thanks!
Awesome!
Wirklich Klasse Video, dein Kanal gehört zu den besten Handtools Kanälen.
Very kind, thank you!
Watching this video makes me want to go down to my workshop :^) I don't think I could give higher praise :^)
Very, very nice 🥰
Thank you
Muy buena herramienta... Felicitaciones...!!! Saludos desde Uruguay...!!!
Thank you!
Note that the curie point is actually a bit cooler than the critical temp for O1, table salt melts at the right temp.
Cool
Eres un gran artista
Ive been lookin for a pair of No6 size hollow and round planes, hard to find in my country and shipping from the States would be too costly. Thought about makin em myself, but always dismissed it because of the mortise for the iron and the floats and tools I would need to buy to do it right........ it never occurred to me to open the whole side of the plane and just saw the bed 🤦♂🤣
Thank you for opening my eyes Frank, I am gonna build those planes soon 😁
Awesome man love to hear this!!
Hand woodworking is just a pleasure, and making yourself the tools is even better. Personally I've made a scrub plane and a rabbet. Is just a joy seeing the tool actually working. After profiling the blade on the bench grinder did you also sharpened it on some stones? As it is curved it isn't very easy to sharpen.
yes sir! yes I did sharpen on the stones and strop!
Aerobatics! 👍
I suppose you can use that tool to make the matching hollow.
Any chance of a companion / follow-up video on making a matching hollow moulding plane to go with the round?
I've never seen anyone plane so effortlessly like you. In my experience it is a bit harder (beginner woodworker). Can you tell me how many times you sharpen and what kind of stone grids you use?
That actually looks manageable with limited tools and doesn't seems to be manageable by someone with less experience. I thought my understanding of moulding planes was incorrect when you called this particular profile a 'round moulding plane'. It turns out we name them differently to our American friends. In the UK this would be called a 'hollow' moulding plane as due to the shape it creates. Calling it a round moulding plane due to the shape of the plane itself also makes sense.
Will you please make yourself a pair of sawing horses about 17" high.
Buy a Stanely # 55.
After reading the Anarchist’s Workbench, I was thinking I would skip the end vise and use doe’s feet to secure my boards against a planing stop. It sounds like that didn’t work out too well for you, would love to hear your two cents before I build a bench.
Worked out ok but I got sick of not having a really secured board in a hurry. Go for the does foot to save money because you can always retrofit a bench with the inset vise later and you'll appreciate it more after having worked without it.
What stone do you use to sharpen your chisels and plane blades?
Very nicely done. Thank you! I have a question: the magnet: where would I find something like that?
Thank you sir! Any of these will work, some are less than $10

did you start with tool steel or mild steel from a home center? how is it holding up?
Awesome job. I just found your channel and I'm also enjoying some of the older vids. I love the hand tool stuff! What were the dimensions of the steel you used? My guess is 3/16" thickness and 1/2" wide.
Awesome man glad to hear it! It's 1/8" x 1/2"
Love the build! Where did you get that handmade shirt 😃
I designed the shirt, for sale on my website!
Nice work! That plane looks great. Where's a good place to source O1 tool steel?
I usually compare prices between online metals.com and amazon. Sometimes Amazon doesn't have the sizes needed though
@@FranksWorkbench Thank you.
👍👍👍
I'm humbled, thank you Stavros!
Any reason why O1 over A2?
Hey brother, Was thinking about trying to make a snipes bill plane (RH) and depending on how that went, build a LH. I figure it would be a great way to better exploit the planes I already have. Have you tried build one yet?
I haven't tried it yet!
good stuff. no trickshots tho :( also try bolting ur metalworking vice to a plank of wood and putting that in your woodworking face vice or tail vice. rigid and secure workholding is the name of the game in preventing chatter with hacksaws and especially files.
More trickshots to come ;)
You are so right about the vice, I need to do that!!
Did I see a Wood River plane with a Veritas iron?
Yes, I dont like the stock wood river irons. Edge was too chippy. Veritas Stanley/record replacement irons fit fine despite being a bit thinner
awesome video, thank you! question, what size chisel do you use to open the mouth? My chisels are too large and I had to use a drill bit haha
That chisel is just a little under 1/8" but considering I ended up having to open the mouth further I think 1/8" chisel would work well!
@@FranksWorkbench thank you so much! I LOVE your videos
Frank. what tail vise do you have?
It's the veritas inset vice

2 weeks later..... "Look at my wall of moulding planes!"
🤣
Actually, NOT handmade!
As soon as you use tools, it is no longer HAND made.
Be careful when you use the word "actually" or handmade....
Boring
