So awesome to see and learn how woodworking has evolved. The early craftsman were very creative on how to adapt using no electricity. It really makes me look at those antique pieces of furniture differently and with much more respect. Thank you Phil for taking the time to teach and preserve this history. I LOVE wood.

about 30+ years ago, I had a couple of my grandfathers old moulding planes. Over time and several moves they became lost. I wish I still had them.Interestingly enough His last name was Bailey, I think the spelling was changed when his grandparents emigrated from Ireland. grandpa was a cabinet maker by trade and he made a lot of his own tools. Largely because money was scarce and he couldn't justify the expense for tools that he didn't use but maybe every other job. He made the planes that I had when he was an apprentice in one of the cabinet shops in I would guess 1922 25. Thanks for the video. seeing those old planes in use was very educational.

This is an incredible video! What a treasure! Question: why didn’t people want planes made completely of metal? Was there a practical reason? Was it too expensive? Is there something we should know about the finish a wooden plane leaves rather than a metal plane?

Back at school some years ago my teather told us to NEVER put a plain down on the blade ? So just shows how the treat your tools!

@richardarveaux5565 4 жыл бұрын

Lets see.... A plane slices wood. And you set the plane down on wood, how does that save the blade. Blade/ wood?

@antidotetp7813 4 жыл бұрын

Same as if there's a nail that's not been seen when planing . So if your busy and just put the plane blade side down an catch something then the blade is chipped knocked hit ect so in theory we always had it told us to always remember to put the plane down sideways get my drift

@leehaelters6182 3 жыл бұрын

@ANTIDOTE TP, you have opened a can of worms, there. The number of acrimonious opinions voiced by woodworkers on this subject is exceeded only when Scandinavians discuss which way the firewood should be stacked, bark up or bark down. I do it both ways. When I am uncertain about the cleanliness of the bench I am working on, I won’t let the blade contact the bench, and possibly come to rest on a piece of grit or some such. It is no trick to find a stick or something on the bench to elevate one end of the tool at rest, maybe even a bed of the shavings just produced. Laying the plane on its side is second best, as it is easy enough to knock the blade adjuster lever when I do, and who needs that? When I know that my work surface is clean, there is no reason to fuss with that, upright on the bench is just fine. Interestingly, Phil Lowe was at the North Bennet Street School, where George Fullerton would teach students to keep planes in contact with the work piece on the back stroke, claiming a stropping effect.

Phil, I am about to mount the bras pulls on the Boston Bump out dresser we started out at your location. My question is how do the pulls and lock escustions space from top to bottom when the drawers start at 4 inch wide on top and increase to 7 inch on the bottom. If you had a front view of your dresser it would help Steve and I better place the finishing brass in the proper place. Thanks Terry

It's plain to see that planes could be addictive. :-) At a few points in the video you said we could see various things that you tried to draw our attention to. And, we could have seen them, if the camera man had zoomed in. Aside from that minor issue, this is a fabulous episode. There is a good chance I might loose sleep binge watching this series.
