Fine Tuning a Bench Plane

Possibly the most satisfying - and certainly the most iconic - activities in all of woodworking is planning with a bench plane. Effortlessly cutting a paper-thin shaving from a wood surface makes you feel that you have arrived as a craftsman. But getting a plane in condition to make those effortless cuts requires careful, painstaking flattening, sharpening, and adjusting. This is what is called “tuning” a plane. Nick takes a deep dive into this essential procedure, not just showing you how to do it, but also explaining the why’s and wherefore’s.
01:23 Parts of a Bench Plane
03:41 How a Plane Works
05:25 Flatten the Sole
08:16 Flatten the Frog
09:33 Sharpen the Plane Iron
14:48 Fit the Chipbreaker to the Plane Iron
16:00 Adjust the Mouth Opening
17:45 Set the Depth of Cut and Lateral Position of the Iron
21:08 Wax and Buff
If you’d like to make the sharpening jig that Nick uses at 11:09, the plans are in his book, “Sharpening.” pages 28 and 29. You can purchase this book from the Workshop Companion store at: workshopcompanionstore.com/pr... . And if you'd like to know more about hand planes, consider his book, "Using Hand Tools" at workshopcompanionstore.com/pr... .
And if you have an old Stanley bench plane, similar to what is shown in this video, and you’d like to know when it was made and something about Stanley’s history, we recommend the Hyperkitten web site: hyperkitten.com/tools/stanley...

I too salute Mr. Butler. Shop teachers are an endangered species, and I feel that we will come to regret the absurdly poor choices the American educational system has made regarding hands-on training. To those shop teachers who are still hanging on by the skin of your teeth, you have my admiration, support, well wishes, and anything else I can throw your way to help. To those of you who would like to understand just what a tragedy it has been and continues to be for America to abandon its middle and high school shop programs, I invite you to read "The Hand" by neurologist Frank R. Wilson and it's follow-on "The Hand: How Its Use Shapes the Brain, Language, and Human Culture." In these books, Wilson points out that the brain, the hand, and language all evolved at the same time -- fully half of our neocortex is given over to controlling our hands, much more of our brain than any other part of our body. In fact, the use of our hands is intimately tied to cognition and expression; people who use their hands often think better and more clearly for it...I'll get off my high horse...(imagine a hammer spin right about now)...

I was a classic high school underachiever. If it had not been for shop classes and drafting classes, I would have gone postal in high school. My shop teacher was one of my biggest advocates and personally saw to it that I attended colleges for pre-enrollment visits. I went on to become a university professor (now Emeritus) but I have always maintained my support for and advocacy of industrial arts training in middle schools and high schools for both boys and girls. Contrary to popular educational "wisdom", I believe such courses would help students adapt to a rapidly changing, highly technological society, for just the reasons you suggest by referencing Frank Wilson's work on the human hand -- not to mention the increase in a sense of accomplishment, the sense of personal competence, and the resulting skills that derive from working with one's hands. That many educators and parents view "shop" courses as obsolete makes me grind my teeth.

@WorkshopCompanion 2 жыл бұрын

@@jerrystark3587 True that. Several years ago, I advised one of the few shop classes left in this corner of of Ohio and helped a group of middle school students build a replica on the Wright brothers' 1902 glider -- the first fully-controllable aircraft -- then we took it to Kitty Hawk and the kids flew it. Really! While technically these kids were part of a shop class, what they learned went far beyond tools skills, or history, or even aeronautics. They built and flew their own aircraft before any of them had a license to drive. They will go through the rest of their lives knowing they can accomplish amazing things simply by expending the energy to get them done.

Oh Nick, great video, as always. Thank you. But I have to tell you that you are the only person in years down this jack plane rabbit hole to have almost the same plane as me! I have the same model with that luscious corrugated sole, in a 5½. I have never seen another, and it's a great tool. My brother found it in a garage sale, well worn with significant rust on it and my Dad, a Fitter and Machinist by trade, restored it. It remains the best Christmas present I've ever received. 25 years on, it needs some love, so this is very timely, as it approaches it's hundredth birthday. It's a beautiful tool, and I'll get it gorgeous again to show Dad in the nursing home, just like I did with his #4 smoothing plane. His dementia means that he's lost many things, but hand tools switch him back on and really bring him back for a while, especially when they're restored. You've helped me start doing a wonderful thing with this. Thank you.

Wow. I got a plane with an elementary (kid's) tool kit for my birthday at about 8 or 9 years old. I couldn't make the plane work AT ALL. No idea what to do. But trying to work it was a frustrating horrible mess. I'm now 70! And I hadn't touched a plane again until just recently when I needed to have one for a new project (wooden kayak frame) and I was lucky enough to find a great yard sale Stanley-Bailey #7 and a #5. Being able to figure a few more things out than I could at 8, I got them adjusted well (and it's clear they were pretty well adjusted by the previous owner) and using them was a DREAM! That really pleasant tool-using experience of a beautiful tool that we all crave. But now I see how to REALLY set it up: and everything that I "stumbled through and guessed at" to get it working "pretty well" is clarified and sharpened and beautifully explained and expanded upon. And I can't wait to get in the shop this weekend and REALLY get them "singing and dancing"!

I inherited a very old Stanley plane just like the one in the video from my Dad when he died. I’ve often picked it up and tried to make a cut but could never get the hang of proper blade adjustment and I contemplated selling it but just couldn’t part with it. Today I’m glad I kept it and now know how to tune it adjust the blade and use it properly. I don’t think my Dad knew the importance of cleaning and tuning. I will use your technique to get this plane tuned and I look forward to many years of use before I pass it to my Son and Grandson. Thank you for your videos. They are a great way to pass the time during a dialysis session.
