Thank you for taking the time to present this to those of us just beginning with rabbet planes. It was very helpful indeed.

Is it just me? Or do watching and listening to these woodworking videos and the zen-like instructor quality of gentlemen like this one.....suddenly make a rainy Saturday enjoyable, aging parental issues more manageable, a wife with additional “honey dos” more loving, and an endless list of requests for my time since I retired more tolerable? I’m relatively new to woodworking.....leaning toward restoring old tools and furniture......and never knew that I not only need a rabbet plane (or three?!?!)....I may forgo a new set of fly fishing waders to buy some! Another Bravo-Zulu to this exceptional instructor....and his most relaxing and knowledgeable teaching style!

Holy moly, this is incredible and informative stuff. This is exactly the information I was looking for. How to choose, setup and how to use - all in one. I am very grateful for the knowledge shared here.

Very good video. I would love to see detailed video instruction on how to make moulding planes. For example, how do you make a side bead moulding plane?

A superb demonstration of how these wonderful old planes work when sharpened and set up correctly.... I too have a fair collection.... ...just to help...a dab of linseed oil or even beeswax will ease progress ... but not on hardwood that might stain.... always try to cut with the grain... ..tacked on fences are allowed too.......

Oh thank goodness for this video. I got a skewed rabbet plane and thanks to this video, I now know that it has a totally different iron in it. The iron is skewed at like a 75 degree angle while the mouth of the wood body is around 65. I think I'll try and hammer out a new body for it instead of reshaping the iron. Purely for the experience.

Found about a half dozen of these last week in a local antique store. Wasn't quite sure what kind of planes they were so I didn't buy any... until now. Maybe I'll go back and grab one and learn to use it. Thanks for the demo!

Thank you so very much for this video. I have a 3/8" skewed wooden plane with a nicker, but I couldn't get the blades out. Then I saw you tap the toe of the plane to release the wedge. The hardest piece of wood I had available was the handle of a very old pick axe. It took about a dozen wacks on the butt of the axe handle to finally release both wedges. Now that I have them and the irons removed I will be able to clean it up and use it. Again, thank you!

Great job. Awesome and very knowlegable instructor. I was waiting for the explanation of the function of the nicker. I greatly enjoyed the video.

I have a Stanley #78 which I use to start my shoulder, and then I use my skew mouthed shoulder plane. I find I get the neatest sharp shoulder this way. My #78 obviously has a nicker, but if it didn’t is it not worth doing a very heavy score with your marking knife to start you off? A brilliant video, extremely helpful to a newbie like myself.

Fantastic skill and knowledge, thank you so much. I have a question, on how a rabet that doesn't go up until the ends of the board would be cut.

@cynthiaquilici6793 Жыл бұрын

I have seen something called a "bullnose" plane, or a "double rabbet" plane, that has a blade at the very front, so that can come right up to whatever your internal stopping-point is. (I haven't used one, just seen them.)

@adamthewoodworker2571 2 жыл бұрын

@4:00, would I have to worry about tearout over the hole when I am hand planning the sole of the wooden plane? Not sure if that would be an issue but wanted to check in before doing that

@trumpetguy8371 2 жыл бұрын

@Wood and Shop So could these wooden rabbet planes be a viable alternative to modern shoulder planes?

interesting and explanatory video, thanks..however you don't talk about sharpening the irons, which I found to be tricky until I realised they require a 40° bevel...or am I wrong about that?

good video - but I find it easier and more effective to work backwards, ie start the cut furthest away from you
