Planing Board for Japanese and Western Planes

Made a simple planing board, with edge planing too, inspired by the traditional Japanese ones, but without the sliding dovetails, so screws and nuts involved :) I've used a very hard and oily Iroko for the board, and maybe one day when I will have the proper tools I will update it more traditional.

Quicky project of a planing board and mini workbench. This is not the updated version of the low workbench😁, but so far, except the lack of vise, I might use this as my general tasks one. I thought of integrating the vise too, but the steel jaws are flushed with the board or higher, so need to study a solution for the 2.0 version

@LimitedGunnerGM 6 жыл бұрын

Adrian Preda, you could add a small moxon style to the insert end. Remove the stop and attach the vise.

@AdrianPreda 6 жыл бұрын

+LimitedGunnerGM Yes, might be an idea. My goal is to be light not to counter weight the board when no clamping and decent sturdy. I thought also of the Veritas pipe vise or to build myself one from acme thread screw. Normal thread typr is kinda useless, will rack, lots of turns etc

@LimitedGunnerGM 6 жыл бұрын

Adrian Preda if you mount the vice backwards, it will put the weight between the legs instead of hanging off of one end. I love where you're going with this idea so far!

@AdrianPreda 6 жыл бұрын

+LimitedGunnerGM This idea I have for a temporary vise, get out the old 6" vise from the low workbench and make it portable, clamped, to either this board or something else

Thank you very much for your lovely comment! Indeed, lately I use more natural sound cause it's quieter now than the old place I've lived before; I had two churches near me, bus station below, street traffic :) , not so disturbing for me, but the camera audio captured everything. I've started woodworking as a hobby about 2 years ago, and almost everything I did, from the low workbench till now, is posted here on the channel, probably skipped a few little projects. Thank you for subscribing and very glad you watched my videos!

Very pretty and cute, must be very convenient for smaller workpieces. All the screws don't feel "Japanese" style, though. I've recently read a book about workbenches by Scott Landis, it mentions several Japanese ones, including this kind of planing board. Some of the things I got from the book: the planing stop and the feet can be installed in sliding dovetails. Feet in sliding dovetails supposedly help a lot to keep the board flat (prevent warping). The stop in a sliding dovetail is very simple to remove and reinstall (quick to swap between different height stops, if needed). The book also mentions that it's better not to apply any finish, and it's best to use a medium hard wood. Too hard woods (e.g. beech) and finish makes the board too slippery.

@AdrianPreda 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks! If you look in my videos, Low Workbench 2.0, I upgraded this planing board to a little workbench where I made those stops with sliding dovetails. For the top I just used one coat of oil, just a minimal protection also for delaying it getting dirty. It's true, it can get slippery, but that's just for a couple of days, eventually and quickly, when you start working on it, will become "rough".

Good time of the day. A huge fan of your videos and you are a talanted master. I know when you use jack-plane you have to put it to 45 degrees to make furniture in European style. Im curious to know what angle would it for japanese style? Thank you very much and looking forward hearing back from you.

@AdrianPreda 6 жыл бұрын

Thank you arkadas for your comment! The western plane is actually 37 degrees, it's a low angle/bevel up plane, with 12 deg bed and 25 deg blade plus a 2 degree secondary bevel, so 39 in total. The japanese plane I really don't remember, I will measure it, but I think is around 45.

Thanks Ricardo! Now I do it at 32deg (30+2). It was 25 originaly, but if I do also smoothing with it I get tearout easily so I raise it. Otherwise 25 (actually 25+2) is ideal for shooting board.

@18roselover 6 жыл бұрын

Yo adrian , if one has the side pieces skewed against the planing board you get more width of coverage on your plane blade so that you are not using the same spot on the blade each time. FYI

I have a similar planing board. But instead of a piece of wood for a planing stop I just have a row of screws that can be raised or lowered to fit the thickness of wood being planed.

@AdrianPreda 6 жыл бұрын

Good idea that too! I'm a little afraid of metal stops, although I never touched my bench dogs or other wood planing stops with the plane, it still brings a fear that one moment I may be clumsy and to that :) Veritas has an adjustable Alu plane stop and some nice brass bench dogs, which are at reasonable prices I think and look nice, and always when I order tools I look at them too, but in the end I never dare to take them :)

There are many different options that you can go for. I have planing boards that allow me to slide the slot in and out. I have boards with slots for pegs. I have jigs that allow be to put in planing boards. I have planing boards that allow me to use clamps. The limits are your imagination.

@AdrianPreda 6 жыл бұрын

Thanks. The western plane is a Veritas smoothing plane, and by how much it costs, is dead flat and perpendicular, the japanese plane, luckily, from first time was perpendicular, but even if in the future will twist, I can adjust it in the shooting board with the western plane. What you said next, google didn't translate enough, but I will guess :) The wobbling when oiling is because the sawhorses are not equal. The main board is from iroko and the legs from larch, they are cut perfectly on machines. This woods should stay steady in time, but even if they will twist, I can always unscrew them and run them on the machines, table saw, thickness planer etc
