- How to make a Hand Plane till
I wanted a place to store all my hand planes. that means I needed to make a hand plane till or storage rack to store all the planes and keep them handy. this hand plane storage mounts flat to the wall on French Cleats. it is a simple hand tool woodworking project that most beginners can tackle. once you figure out the how to it is all downhill.

Beautiful job excellent planing skills.
James don't stop talking your humor is as enjoyable as your teaching skills thumbs up friend and mentor
Rex Kruger channel introduced you to me and im soo glad he did. Your channel is awesome ty
Thanks man! I love his channel. the two of us have a lot of fun together!
also what is the saw used to cut along the fence?
Finished mine this week. Works and looks awesome! Thanks for the great video, the inspiration and the plans which were easy to adapt to my needs!
Looks great James. I'm sure it will be full before too long 😃
+The Wood Yogi lol yup they like to multiply.
Cool! Very convenient storage system planes! I like that.
Clever and fun to watch!
Awesome!!
Great job and design for your till.
I'm always glad to see pure joy when you say something like...I really love xyz...about everything! Glad you're sharing the joy of woodworking. Getting jealous 😒.
Still space for that No. 1...
you that and the #2 are still missing!
How do we know he doesn't have it tucked in his cheek or behind his ear?
I'll be starting this project soon. Thanks, James for doing all the hard work and thinking for me.
+Jon Sommers lol my pleasure jon!
You're right James both those tills really compliment each other as well as that shop.
+Opa's Workshop thanks Opa!
I'm new to your channel and love your work. I did cringe when I saw you put a plane on your bench on it's sole. I received many a "thick ear" from my dad for doing just that!!!
"A plane needs to be on it's side to protect the protruding blade" he used to say. This was second only to laying a saw on the bench (needed to be stood up).
When he passed some 20 years ago, I inherited all his tools he acquired over the years. I still have the first saw he bought as an apprentice in 1955.
I am recently retired and am looking forward to reacquainting myself with all those tools, awaiting the "clip behind the ear" when I mess up 😁
There are a lot of people from the mid-century who had that beat into them. You're not alone lol
It looks great and it's a great design
Great design and build on your plane till
Enjoyed the video !!!
Amazong job! I am so glad to have found your channel.
Awesome plane storage! I love how simple it is, and I love that you can add additional planes above. Great stuff, I think I'll be building your design when I need storage for my planes
+Nic Kuetemeyer thanks Nic. Looking forward to seeing what you built.
Very inspiring…. ❤❤❤
Wow James! Love that design, I want one now!!!
+Mikhandmaker thanks man.
Nice panel, more work than just a sheet of plywood... really nice..
Very nice!
Bro, your Jorts are on point. Must have been from the end of season bargain bin from the Stein Marts from Hamilton Ohio. 👌🏻.... I say that because that’s where I got mine
Super sweet design both the plane and saw tills are beautiful!!
+Thom spillane thanks Thom
OK, this is great! I'm in the middle of building an attached shelving and French Cleat system to my work bench. I have 4 of 6 pieces milled for the French cleats and was about to make the plane till. I thought it would be a good idea to take a look at this video before hand and make sure I was on the right track. Thanks to your video, you showed me a few design ideas I hadn't considered! Now, I have a better plan for making it! After that comes the chisel rack, the saw till and something for all the marking tools... etc.... Oh, this will be fun! Thanks, James!!! :-)
Sounds like a fun time. It is always nice when everything has a home!
Just plane awesome.
+Robert J. Keller lol thanks Robert
Those last 2 projects sure filled up that wall pretty quickly.. It looks great and very user friendly!
thanks man. still have a lot of other smaller ones to go up.
Really nice.🔨
THat's just what I wanted to do for my planes too, thanks for the ideas. You have the best 'how-to' I have seen. Great looking rack.
LOL Thanks Tony!
I'm just getting into woodworking... I really love your videos and I have learned a lot. Thank you
Thanks man. That means a lot.
Very nice James, thanks for posting it.
my pleasure Bill!
I live in a heavily damp area. I need to put my planes in a "sealed container". I am going to build this with sides and a cabinet style door.
Typically I use vci anti rust paper and emitters to keep the metal from rusting.
It is a wonderful concept.... very "dense". Thank you .
Frank
Just what I need to build. Thanks James. Btw awesome workbench.
Thanks Rone! and thanks. I love working on this beast!
Somehow missed this project and just saw it. Great job! I'm going to build one that's similar to it for my shop.
Sweet man! have fun with it!
As always James, I enjoyed. Thanks.
+Bathrobe Carpenter thanks man.
I recently got an old Marples MA44 plough plane (basically the same as a Record 044) and since I got it ive found the same joy as you..... I could cut grooves all day long :) Last night I got bored, so I went to the workshop and cut 3 grooves in the side of some waste pine 2x4 about 600mm long, used my T5 to plane the grooves away..... I then proceeded to cut another 3 grooves. Like ive heard you say "second verse, same as the first"..... I kept doing it until I planed the wood into what was essentially, non-existence hehe :P
love it
+kelly martin thanks Kelly!
Awesome job James! 👍 Looks great! 👊
+Fred McIntyre thanks Fred!
Lovely build.Thanks once again. I am just done with a hand built workbench (Paul Sellers) and have become reasonably adept at hand cut dovetails.People like you inspire me.
thanks! that means more then you know!
Since I'm in school for woodworking now and we learn all the traditional joinery right now I can really understand why you do everything with handtools it's really relaxing 😃
+Not only Wood lol right on!
Not only Wood I
Beautiful job!
Thanks.
Just watched this video on the suggestion of another one of your subscribers . When you used the 1/4 inch strips to guide your combination plane a big light bulb turned on in my head . Pure genius man . Just have a strip of whichever width dado you're cutting and drop it in the previous and there's your guide . Love it !
Glad I could help.
Nice job James love the till
+Joe Dov thanks joe.
Again that giant piece of white oak is making me envious!
Very cool till design, when I get my own shop I'll have to remember this option. Also a nice video to watch.
Thanks Ray! I have 2 more in stock that are bigger than that. one is 24" wide by 10' clear and strait. sorry I had to! LOl
Wood By Wright I should give you a thumbs down for that. Haha
I think I deserve it! Sorry!
Really handsome build James. Your shop is looking terrific! rr
thanks Richard!
Well done!!
+Bill Quillin thanks Bill
Hi from Portugal,
You hand up with nice tills :D
Nice plane set :D
Obrigado(Thanks)
+Blog das Madeiras thanks man!
I like your design. It came out very nice. The lip for the toe is great. Excellent craftsmanship. Recession the dividers is a nice touch.
Thanks Ken!
Very nice James!
+Todd Sarnstrom thanks Todd
Hi from Rex's channel, just picked up the plans for this and the saw till with Rex's patreon discount code. Looking forward to building both.
Thanks man. looking forward to seeing what you make!
That came out beautifully brother.
Your tool wall is really nice.
+Eric Rusch Sr thanks Eric
I really like this, I just found your Chanel. it has quickly become one of my favorites. thank you.
+ahorseman4ever1 thanks man. That means a lot. Let me know if there is ever something you want to see.
Wood By Wright thank you! you have awesome content. this fits right in to helping me educate myself in wood working the old fashion way. I have been collecting old wood working tools. I would like to see how more of the old fashioned planes are used. I saw you use a different plane when working on your plane holder.
Well done
+Grazh0per thanks
This is sick, I just have 1 metal plane don't think I will be making one of these haha - Stanley no 4.
Love that design James! Great work as usual. Now you need to get more planes..... :)
one can never have enough!
I was looking for a video like this one and, once again, James has the answers! Thanks man!
Just a suggestion: for us newbs, it would be very helpful whenever you use a bench plane just to mention what size it is. It's probably not that important but I often find myself wondering which size I should use for each particular task. I suppose it gets easier with experience ;)
Thanks I have a few videos on that topic too. Here is one. ruclips.net/video/1QYDC72yAsg/видео.html
Nice work
thanks!
Excellent video and product, as always! I've SOMEHOW (wink wink) gotten my plane count up to 20 in the past few months, so it's time for a plane till of mine own and this video came at just the right time!
+Josh Babin they keep finding there way into the shop!
plane till, now that just sounds cool
+shonuffisthemaster lol thanks.
That's how I like it. Plane and simple. ;)
+TrollForge lol thanks man
LOOKS GOOD, MINE IS ALOT LIKE YOURS BUT I KICKED IT OUT AT THE BOTTOM A LITTLE, KEEP IT UP.
Nice work. Whenever I watch your stuff I want to sell all my power tools and buy more planes and chisels.
Can't wait to see more on the lathe build.
Wood Frontier do it take the plunge, you'll enjoy it. But be careful, hand tools are highly addictive!!
+Wood Frontier lol. Looking forward to seeing what you built.
Great video and great skill. You are very eloquent. A simple and effective design. You did cut towards your left hand when marking the groove. Not a criticism, maybe it will prevent pain one day. How do I know?? . A labour of love. Oak is a tough wood to work. I could never master my Stanley rebate plane, unless the grain was just right. Like you I also love linseed oil. It brings out the grain, and leaves your hands feeling good and smells nice. I use power tools for speed when ripping, but am keeping to hand tools more and more these days. I really draw the line at repetitive rip sawing!! I love your bow saw. Inspiring.
thanks Jim. that means a lot. If I was not making videos for a hand tool channel I would probably use a table saw to. LOL
Jipp, thats it. I Build mine a couple month ago. Also vertical. I like to save place on my walls.
+DrCRAZY yup. My thought exactly!
Wood: a
James Wright: Its a lot of fun!
Watching the video:
Me thinking: it's a nice piece of wood
James: yeah it's a nice piece of wood
Me thinking again: that's a nice chair just to use to hold that piece of wood.
James: yeah that's a nice chair, it's my shop chair!
Holy crap he's a time traveler and he can read minds! Instance sub!
By the way, I was looking for a plane storage build and this one is just the right type! Thanks James,
LOL thanks man! it is my super power!
Awesome video, thanks... literally was looking for this, since I've just jumped into the fantastic world of the hand plane... but I'm hoping you have something similar for chisels...?
Here you go. I have videos for all of the racks on the wall. ruclips.net/video/u_Fo0R72ago/видео.html
That looks great and the shop on the whole is really looking great!! My most recent video is about a plane that I know you don't have in your till :). Have a wonderful day.
LOL nope, but I am licensed to fly one. I have not had a chance to in over a year though.
Just a thought, what if you took a wire hanger and made a hook so you could dip small items into any finish you are using and have a free hand with a cloth like if you use satin coat or such
6:10 using second skate as fence - genius!
thanks!
TILL the next time....have a wonderful day.
+Jim Dockrell lol thanks man
Great vid James I suspect that till will fill up at a fair rate 😉
+Doc Darkness lol yup that it will.
Have a question for you. Have you heard of a vintage buckeye hand plane? It was made by buckeye saw and vise. It like a #4. I’m not sure if they are any good or not. I’m asking you because you seem the be the man when it comes to hand tools.
They are good. Not the best on the world but if tuned up well they would preform perfict. It would be a good user plane
Such a reliable channel. Hard for me to watch anyone else
Look fantastic, only we are loosing that beautiful colours wood wall behind you 😂
...is that a plug I see 🤓
+theduck lol sorry man.
James, I really like your design here, not to mention your craftsmanship! But I have a "supposer" for you: suppose a few of your favorite user planes were wood-body or transitional era planes (like mine! 🙂)? Those don't fit neatly down into your French cleat slots, the way your cast iron Bailey planes do. How would you design your way out of that little conundrum? Just a deeper bottom block with a more definitive lip, perhaps? But what about the top? I can only think of a deeper block with a rotating latch of sorts, that has to be turned up when taking the plane out, or down whenever you put it back. I'd be curious to know how you'd approach this situation. (... and your plane collection is beautiful, by the way!)
Thanks, James!

I have a few I want to mount up there the problem I ahve is they are all much wider. so they do not work on the same rack. but I would hang them the same way with a cleat top and bottom just the cleats come out further to wrap around tot he top of the body. the top cleat just needs to be deep enough so that you can lift the plane up and unhook it from the bottom cleat.
Hey J, on those 1/4 strips, I been wanting a cutting gauge myself, maybe that's a thought for you in the future ANNNND OMG !! w/ that big ole' piece of oak...holy molly.
+Carbonite Gamorrean yup I have one and thought of using it but I am lazy lol thanks man. I have a few larger planks of white oak.
You aren't lazy... And wow! you suck ;-)
Happiness is a warm card scraper... scrape scrape
James, nice job! You really should move that electrical outlet to the left or right, whichever shortens the wires. And your carved sign is gone?
+Henry Friess the outlet will soon be covered by chisels and the logo has a new spot but I have not put it there tyet.
Another great job and beautiful finished piece! Now, why do I not see a spot in your till for the plane on your bench at the end of the video? did you forget about it or does it not get to play with the rest of them?
+Frank McCane that one will have a spot soon. There are a couple that are not up yet.
Welp, you have just given me projects #3 and #4. 1 is workbench, 2 is a small stool for the kitchen.
LOL I would say sorry, but I am not. Have fun man! looking forward to seeing what you make!
Love the design. About to add upper cleat blocks. Not sure what the profile is. 1/2" x 1/2" rabit, but what surface is angled ? Also, does the lower and upper cleats support a #4 Stanely plane with its bottom profile? Thanks for the clarification.
The rabit is determined by the plane as they are all a bit different. Yes it will support a #4 and smaller plane. I talk about that a but in the plans if you want to see more details.
Looks good! Organization is a wonderful thing to have in your shop. I'm curious where you get all this oak you've been using?
+Lemongrasspicker thanks man. I have a video on that actually, but I wait for large olts on Craig's list to pop up and snag it when I can. Most for help on the farm or
Makes sense, I'll have to move to the countryside soon so I can take advantage of such deals
+Lemongrasspicker actually half the time they are in the city. Some cabnit shop going out of biz. Or some guy passed away with a full shop.
Wood By Wright makes sense, I'll have to stay more proactive in that case
Everything is coming out so nicely! Quick question for you: I see that you are using modern drill bits with your brace. Is your chuck the two jaw or three jaw variety? Do you get any slippage? I have a two jaw and just assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that it wouldn't hold.
Sone two jaws will hold both. Like this one. but most of the older ones will not.
Great video - thanks for making this. One question: why bother making grooves for the 1/4 x 1/4 square pieces? Why not just glue them directly on to the back board?
You could just glue them on. However they receive a lot of lateral force from things banging into them and if the glue isn't perfect it becomes the weak point. Putting it into the joint gives you a little bit of mechanical advantage.
I alweays like your style so far and this rack is no exception. I do have a question though. The planes on the bottom far left are like the majority of planes I own so far where the base of the tote rest at the edge or even a little pass the edge. Did you have to do something different to accommodate the Stanley No. 4 1/2's or the No. 3's?
With the smaller sizes it just rests on the tote. It doesn't have to clip into anything. Gravity is constantly pushing the plane against the wall so it doesn't actually have to hold it against the wall at the bottom. Just up at the top.
Pro tip, for 1/4 stock if you take a cutting gauge and make a deep pass on both sides then hang it off the side of your bench and give it a quick tap it breaks right off. then just clean it up with a plane and youre good to go :)
yup that works well. I have done that a few times.
Beautiful "wall hugging" design. Kuddos and a bit of jealousy.
thanks Thomas!
Hi James, say, that is a nice looking build. I saw something the other day and it said it was done by James Loyal Wright, is that you?
God Bless my friend.
+Frank Ingram that is me. What did you see?
Tell the truth I can't remember right now. I think I was search for something on RUclips. Sorry 'bout that.
Tape measures and planning?! Unsubscribe! Came out great, James! Really like the design with the angles to hold everything in place.
I know right! LOL thanks man!
It looks great. No room for your Walnut Logo... I guess we will just have to look at the power socket. AND again, Shannon has some advice for you, we have all been planing/flattening boards the wrong way. ;0
+Peter Compton lol yup was watching the fraud cast when flatting it. Some great thoughts there. I have a place for the logo. Just need to put it up. The chisels will soon be covering the outlet.
Och am on the way of making both of those [albeit smaller, due to smaller shop]. But was wondering how did you make the holder for the wodden plane we see down the line in the new videos? Couldnt find it on the site with plans nor searchign through the videos.
I'm guessing you're talking about the clip that holds the top of the plane? That is the same as the others. On the wooden plane it's just held in with friction.
Wow lots of planes. Have you restore all of them? Do you use each plane for an specific porpouse or you use only the blue ones
the blue ones are the ones I have restored. all but 2 are up and running. they all have things that they are better at than others.
Awesome build! But one thing - where did your kerfing plane go? It made me slightly nervous to see you create those kerfs by pushing your saw like that, haha.
it is up on the shelf. for a cut this far into the board, it was not going to be as steady as a fence. sometimes I will do it with just a knife wall and no fence.
Did you run out of blue paint LOL Good job James
+Nelson Smith lol I only paint the ones I restore.
Hello, MAtter is the blade is always locked, not good ?
Hello! That looks great! Im making a portable plane and saw till but im stuck on few things. How wide is the sole of the no. 8 plane? Do I need to angle the plane till at all? I appreciate your videos. They me help a lot!!
the final width of the #8 can very depending on the thickness of the cast. but most are just over 3" wide. I did not angle my plane till as it has the cleats to hold them in. but others will angle it so they do not have to use the cleats.
Great! Thanks a lot.
Do you ever use a brush to apply the BLO? How does it turn out? It looks like it might be a better way to do larger pieces, but not if you sacrifice quality.
the brush works fine. there is no surface residue when you wipe off the excess so it does not matter what you use to apply it. most of the time I prefer a rag as the brush will be trash when done.
beautiful and your planes are so nice as well. one question i am confused about..i see shops have so many planes and i dont understand why...sometimes 3 or 4 of the same size...isnt that redundant or am i not getting something?
sometimes it's nice to have different planes set up in different ways so you don't have to change the settings to change the use. I have two number fives that I use regularly and one of them is set up as a scrub plane and the other one is set up with a finer plane and finer blade.
@@WoodByWright clearly I need to learn more about planes and their different set ups n uses
I'm curious if you put a single cleat on the back to hang it with, or did you put a cleat at each cleat on the wall...???
It is hanging on just two bars.
If you were really committed to the "hand tool only" philosophy you'd record your audio on a wax cylinder like Bela Bartok. (I'm kidding I love your videos I'm just a music teacher who had to go to a conference this week)
+thisgoestoeleven lol that would be an interesting video.
I made a pin hole camera once using a beer can. That was great fun to develop it too. (A bit obscure, but kind of along the same lines)
