Great book for a beginner . kzfaq.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ this book really starts from the beginning, as in it explains what basic tools are and how to use them. But when it gets to the art of creating joints and how and when to use them this book really starts to teach you something. At least that was my experience.

I’ve been in the woodworking trade for decades. I love this series. You’re inspiring people to work with their hands and build stuff. I’ve got fancy power tools at work that any fine cabinet or furniture shop would love. I’ve got power tools at home that many hobby woodworkers would envy. But I’m happiest when I’m using plain Jane hand powered tools. Sure, throwing a table top on the surface sander is easy and fast. Yes, using a molder or shaper is quick. But does it fill you with pride? Meh, not like building a nightstand by hand does. You’re showing beginning woodworkers how to build the tools they will need. Which I think is a whole lot cooler than telling someone (I’m looking at you “New Yankee Workshop”) they need a $350 router or a $1,300 panel saw to do a project. Keep it up dude! I always look forward to seeing what you are up to next.

Do not be taken in by this guy. would you cut a sheet of ply on a dimension saw without first checking that the riving blade was set correctly and that a test piece went through without raising chips along the edge on both sides. Then you would not use a rebate or plough plane without a riving knife built into it. Putting a try square over a plane is usually a waste of time, close is all that is required for a shooting board as the blade can be adjusted by up to one degree to account for wear on the plane and wear on the shooting board. Flatting the sole of a plane dose nothing if you put a plane on fine sand paper and the leading edge, trailing edge and around the mouth shine then it is good to go, the sole between is just holding those three lines of contact together and dose not have to contact the work piece. I would suggest typing"Paul Sellers" into You Tube.

Shop classes are good for everyone, and all... but a lot of false hopes turn into epic personal disappointments when no examples of faults, flaws, and fixing are ever shown. Thinking on one's feet to figure it out and fix it is what separates a master craftsman from a frustrated quitter. ;o)

Just kind of a "we started here, here is where we are at, and here is where we are going." ?

Aloha Rex, Good plow plane build and you didn't need to hitch up the mule team, either! I add to start the cut of the grove, begin the cut from the far end, taking your first shaves there and work your way back, making these cut longer and longer as you progress. It makes your guiding the plane easier and shaves better than trying to establish the width of the cut at the same time as the length. The cutter decides the width where ever it is placed, the depth stops control the final cutter's bite, but if you remove some of the strain of both by the final end being cut already, you are no longer sliding into uncut territory but that of a finished cut field, less chance of a miscut or cut gone arye. On your router plane, nice but cuts seem too deep and chisel shows it by flexing from the cuts you were making. Better to make lighter cuts and have finer shaves than hacking it out. Slips happen and lighter cuts save cuts in our hands.

These home made specialty planes are awesome! Man, I’ve learned a lot about woodworking just in the last few weeks since I found this channel. I’ve worked with metal forever and my wife has always been coaxing me to start wood working because it was so popular in her family and is familiar and sort of comforting to her. I have wanted to start too but I’ve always told her I don’t really know where to start and can’t afford to invest a ton of money in being fully equipped for what would now be the fourth trade I’ve fully tooled myself out for haha. Enter this channel. Since the pandemic started, I became 100x the woodworker and it’s very largely due to this channel. Thanks for all the effort you put into this, it’s almost like a clear and simple roadmap for lost people to navigate the craft starting out and nobody else is doing that. There are so many instructional videos out there that would be great for learning.... assuming one has a COMPLETELY tooled out professional woodwork shop.. which just isn’t normal people like me.

The °45 just isn’t nearly as easy to use and consistent as using my Kruger grooving plane. I benefit from all you content in some way, but the gooving plane was just what I needed, right when I needed it. This video came back up in the algorithm today and so I thought I’d drop a line.

You could put a simple fence on that plane by drilling two holes through the plane then gluing 1/2 or 3/4 nuts into the holes. Then put the fence on the bolts (the fence should slide easily on the bolts but not wobble) and tread them into the nuts that are glued into the plane. Finally add wing nuts to the side opposite the fence to lock it in place. The fence is adjusted by screwing the bolts in or out and then is pushed against them when you plane the wood.

Also I didn't make it fully braced but left the plane iron(chisel) half exposed, that way it's super handy for chips to exit. Now it takes spiral shavings that look like spring.

Hey Rex, I really enjoy your Videos. The Simplicity and a loooot of information! I am going to build some tools from your Videos. Thank you for all your effort! Love the salt trick and am going to try this out soon! But maybe there is one thing, I can teach you 🤓, I hope i can explain you this, english is not my native language. When you sand or file corners, you are following the corner. Actually you have to do the oposite movement with your hand. You dont follow the corner but you move your hand up when your file or sanding block reaches the end end. You start with the tip of the sanding block on the corner/wood and end with the tip/the end of your Block on the wooden piece. This makes the corners really round. It does not sound logical but thats how i have learned this from a teacher long time ago 🤪 Love Your Videos, especially the simplicity 👌 Thank You

Very nice, Rex. I'd have used a temporary fence for that very first rebate in the plane itself too, though I don't suppose the angle matters as much since you can just plane the sole later. For little pieces like those depth stops, I've found it really helps to laminate two pieces together with the grain crossed at 90°. It increases the strength immensely & will do away with any risk of the wood splitting along the grain when you apply pressure to those slots.

Thanks Rex.Really enjoyed that. Another,lazier(!) way to make the tool is by glueing 4 blocks together.As long as you have some stock for the central part which is exactly the same width as the chisel;then u can just cut an angle on each central piece to form the space for the chisel and wedge then glue on the 2 sides afterwards. Any fine tuning is done to the wedge after glue-up.

Using chisels is great, but you should also go over how to make/harden your own blades out of scrap carbon steel (files, throwaway chisels, etc). As long as the cutting area is small enough to heat with a plumbers torch it's not that hard, and it opens up an entire world of customized tools.

Antique brass doorknobs would make excellent handles for your planes. They come with a threaded bolt on the end that would be really easy to attach to the end of the plane without messing with the measurements and give your planes a comfortable pushing or control surface, and a unique look. I don't recommend those old crystal doorknobs though.. glass on a tool sounds like a bad idea...

The nuts are a bit overkill, you could just drill the tapping size for the screw/bolt directly into the hardwood and it would hold fine.

Im glad to see how you make things and it gives me good idears, but i have seen in my grandfathers shop, that he had some planes that have other shapes, like round curving out and curving in, for making Windows and so on, do you know how to make throws and make a video about it or do you know someone how build planes like that ?

Hi Rex, well done again. I've seen you shaping with the sandpaper stick, maybe consider the fairly cheap shinto saw rasp as a update? Paul Sellers did a review on it (Shinto Rasp Review | Paul Sellers), it's a great tool.

Not terribly expensive refinement for the depth stops. T-nuts to hold the threaded wingnuts. It just makes the screw more reliable.

When you're getting deeper into the groove, don't the sides of the groove tend to lift up and chip out, since there's no cutting edge at that point?

I recently found a wooden dado plane at an estate sale. It's missing both blades and one of the wedges. Thanks to your videos I feel confident I can make another wedge and add a chisel for the main cutting blade. But what do I do for a nicker blade (besides buying a blank and cutting and tempering it)? Any suggestions?
