I know I am several months later. However, I just tried my first router plane, the Veritas one. As a beginner, I did all the mistakes and you clearly demonstrated the proper way to use it. Thank You.
Using the face edge of the bench is brilliant. I first watched this some months ago and it has since made a huge difference in the quality and ease of plowing. Thanks Brother 👍
Very informative. I know how to drive my Veritas router plane now. Also gleaned a lot from the dado and groove demonstrations.
Excellent coverage of the subject. Lots of little tips. Thank you for this video which refreshes my memory and teaches me more.
Missed the live session😞, but saw all video, good video - woodworking class!! I have a Luban 43 plane, its a replica of record 43, using it to make grooves. Love this small plane very satisfied working with it- well built and came with 4 cutters.
Thank you! I think I get my problem now. Have to try it out!
Good presentation.
Great video! One of your best.
Hey thanks! And here I thought it was a bit rough. Glad you enjoyed it.
the Ulmia plow plane works great, once you get Imperial cutter irons instead of metric.
Many thanks. As always just brilliant! My main challenge is always trying to make things repeatable. Quite a challenge!
maybe don't try so hard and avoid that challenge. Repeatability is actually much harder with a hand tool approach because we don't start with a perfectly milled board created by machines. Its not necessarily a disadvantage but it doesn't give you a constant on which you can base repeatability. Treat each part as unique and you might be surprised how efficient the work can be.
Thanks for the video, this is precious information. I have a question on how a dado that doesn't go up until the ends of the board would be cut.
Here check out this video I did on cutting a blind dado ruclips.net/video/rK6wwLkPJBY/видео.html
@@RenaissanceWW awesome, thank you!
so if you have the fence for the veritas routing plane, could you make a groove for example to make frames for doors?
Yes you can but you really need to take a light cut as the unsupported blade will chatter easily. In general the router plane is meant for refining joints, not creating them.
@@RenaissanceWW This is indeed my fear. Well I'll try it out on a small frame and I'll see if the routing plane can get decent results. But it does sound like I'll be needing a plow plane for this Christmas. Thanks for the response!
@37’ in, doesn’t the saw set chew up the straight edge?
Nope. As you pressed the saw into the fence the set teeth are the limiter. Then as soon as you start cutting the teeth sink into the wood and are below the surface and never make contact with the fence.
@@RenaissanceWW I've always used scrap stock for this purpose out of fear that I would damage a straightedge (or because I didn't have a suitable straightedge). Good to know!
Well Shannon that was a really good session. Looking forward to metered half laps, they have intimidated me enough not to attempt. Maybe you or someone can answer a question I have had some time, I have a Stanley 12-250 plow/combo plane that works great, it came with a full book of cutters plus some others, however it doesn't have a 3/4 inch and none was offered. Why?
most likely because the 3/4" size wasn't a benchmark until much more recent times. Well after the combo planes had slipped into "old timey" characterization. I talk a bit about that in this session with regard to dado planes
I noticed in the video that it appears you have a sloped shooting board. Do you find the sloping has advantages over the standard shooting board? Also, what did you mean by, "That microwaved crap at Home Depot"?
not particularly, no. The slope is a good idea in theory but practically I don't find it makes much difference. As far as Home Depot wood, their material is often dried way too fast leaving it unstable or sometimes over dried and too brittle. Like a microwave where you can have steaming hot on the inside right next to ice cold for your Hot Pocket.
Have you tried the pointed router blade?
check out the video at 1:16:55 I talk about spear point blades there.
