Stanley's "Forty-Five" - Seven Planes In One
Let me introduce you to the anatomy of this metal combination plane.
With a number of separate pieces, the No.45 can at first seem a little daunting. In this video I will show you the basic anatomy, focusing on the main stock, sliding section, and the fence.
Due to the complexity of the plane, it's setup for the many functions it can perform will be covered in separate videos, available now on my channel.

Even 9years after your release of this video, it is super helpful. Ive just purchased a Stanley 45 and the instructions for its use are missing. Thank you for maintaining this on your channel!!

Excellent and timely video Mitch. I have had two No. 45 awaiting refurbishment for some time. One with a wooden handle like yours and the other a chromed metal handle. I think the metal handle version is the older plane. Excellent commentary on the various parts and what they're used for, always wondered what the clam was. Looking forward to seeing the No. 45 in action. Cheers Mick

Good video with very deep insight as to the versatility of this plane. I bought one last year but unfortunately most of the smaller cutters were snapped at the notch or bent out of shape. Now I am a bit wiser and have just bought a N0 55 plane, every single one of the four boxes of cutters are in pristine condition just like the rest of the plane. Can't wait to start using it this weekend

Hi Mitch, that was an interesting video, thanks! Your 45 seems to be in a nice condition, do you have all the cutters? I have a Record 405 combination plane which I've restored and used for a few basic (ploughing) tasks. So I'm quite interested in your coming-up videos of the 45!

@mitchwoodwork 9 жыл бұрын

Unfortunately I don't, although I've got quite a few. Of course they are still available, so if I find the need to use one I don't have, then I guess I've justified buying it ;)

@kf6pfk 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for the Stanly 45 instructional. I inherited a full 45 set that is in excellent condition and hadn't a clue what were best practices in using it. It's been sitting on the shelf in the box. Your videos inspire me to give it a closer look-see. What kinds of woods do you find that it best works with? And thank you for making these videos for a rather limited crowd. (I did subscribe).

For the depth adjusting, why is there a groove in the side of the screw (adjustment mechanism) Showed @3:38? I just got one of these things. and the pin that notches into the blade just spins around unless I hold it while adjusting depth. I think its from rust, but wondering if it has to do with that groove.

@mitchwoodwork 7 жыл бұрын

Ah, I think you have a little repair to do. There should be a small alignment pin through the side of the top hole, which engages the groove and prevents the screw rotating.

@qigong1001 7 жыл бұрын

Yes! You are a genius! I removed some rust and see a small pinhead that is not engaging the groove in the screw. I think the part that engages the screw may have rusted away. I'll try to punch out whats left of it and fit a new pin.

@mikezep827 7 жыл бұрын

Do you know how to remove the wood on the handle? I am restoring a 45 and 46, and that's all that's slowing me down now. Thanks

@mitchwoodwork 7 жыл бұрын

That's a good question! I've not done it, but I don't recall seeing any visible fixings on the 45s and 50s I've dealt with, and would therefore guess that the handle are glued. I would strip any varnish and look for a joint line. If there is one, wrap it up in a hot damp cloth and with luck the glue will soften and allow the parts to be separated.

Yes complicated to say the least...looks like quite a bit of fiddling to get it where it needs to be....Well over my head. BTW, I'm jealous of that moat behind you. I would like one just in case the Visigoths decide to go for a sail.

@JoeBob79569 4 жыл бұрын

I assume you could also use the fence backwards against a "wall" or some kind of rail if you were cutting a groove into a large piece that was too wide for the fence to rest against the side of the piece?

@mitchwoodwork 4 жыл бұрын

Sadly the fence needs to drop down with the cut as it proceeds. I use a wooden batten clamped on the workpiece and run the planes skate against it. Once a cut is established, the groove will guide the plane.

@JoeBob79569 4 жыл бұрын

@@mitchwoodwork Ah yes, of course! I just got my first combination plane today, a Lewin, so I still forget some of these obvious things, even though I know them somewhere in the back of my brain.. And thanks, I'll keep that batten tip in mind.

@jayj4142 2 жыл бұрын

I just bought a 45…how do you adjust the fence if it is not parallel to the skate, as you showed is the case on yours? It doesn’t look like there’s any way to put any shim material in there to make it parallel…

@mitchwoodwork 2 жыл бұрын

I assume you have a wooden fence, in which case you can plane it, using stop shavings, into parallel. You could also loosen the wooden strip and shim it into parallel. If you don't have a wooden fence, then add one which is shaped to take out the error.
