I always struggled with wooden coffin smoothers until I watched your video on remouthing, using your advice I fixed a few old planes and now I almost exclusively use the old wooden planes. your videos have been a great resource for me as a new woodworker, can't thank you enough!
Thanks once more for sharing your knowledge. I've finally understand why sometimes I had big shavings on one of my planes. I was almost sure but unable to find the piece of information about this. Last part of the video sums it up wonderfully. Gold for amateurs! I was also shocked the first time I've realised that metal planes do not really keep their surface flat or are not that flat out of factory. Make sens now why some brands are more expensive than others : attention to details and better quality of material used.
Thank you. You have answered a few questions I have had about mouth width and cap iron setting. Do you advise penciling the surface to be planed just as a person would pencil the surface before sanding.
A fantastic place to find a cheap piece of glass is to salvage the glass shelves out of your junk refrigerator. It’s flat and tempered - just in case you drop it!
Some modern remakes of the Stanley no.4 are abominable. My Groz for instance has more backlash than a BDSM venue (so I'm told) to the point of being unusable. Others are impossible to get flat. James Wright did a test on cheap Stanley clones and found the same thing. Vintage wooden planes, on the other hand, are always a joy to use when set up right.

Thank you for your knowledge!! I have your book!!!
That's great to hear!
thanks. I just went out to my shop and dug out my old $6 coffin plane. I'm going to tune it and compare it with my Stanley #4 which I usually use.
Sounds like a great project!
Excellent video

Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
I'd like a comparison of smoothing plane vs scraper.
Smoothing plane (if set up right) is invariably better, but a scraper can be very useful for odd shapes.
@@gjbmunc Thank you very much. I'll give one of my planes a camber. You already taught me how to do it ( :

About as good a rendition of the subject as can be done in 22 minutes. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it.
