Very annoying audio!

I agree - no need for this distraction

Nobody cares

Suits brought me here@@Christoph-sd3zi

I haven't tried it so I am much in the speculation or theory field here but the issue I find with both a cut-off tool or a file is that they remove material from the bar. What we want to do is to deform the edge of the bar by displaying steel from the low areas to high spots and sideways. So I am afraid that the cut of the tool will be a temporary solution as it can not make the high ridges that cold chisel make but rather serrate the bar.

@@YoavSamuelLiberman So far the fix using the cut off took has been working with no problem.

Renaissance wax, but any good quality wax will do...

@@YoavSamuelLiberman Johnson paste wax?

@@tenkill Sure!

It is normal. But it should not be excessive. 0.1-0.2 mm is a good number, anything bigger is too much I am afraid.

@@YoavSamuelLiberman tks yoan , its almost 0.2mm. 🙏

@@carlosbatalha9282 Try to reduce it to 0.1mm and see if it helps.

@@YoavSamuelLiberman i think is a good idea

Thanks for your question. Unfortunately I do not sell these tables. It was made once by my student Jackie.

I am glad I was able to inspire a solution to the problem. Let me know if it works for your clamps.

I don't think that Jackie has any at the moment.

@@YoavSamuelLiberman I am very interested in replicating this sort of design as a wedding gift for family members. Id like to be able to credit jackie for her beautiful furniture by purchasing a set of plans. If non are available, a basic set of measurements would go a long way.

Unfortunately I don't think she make them comically. This was a one of a kind project.

Yes, this same plane is now sold by Rockler, Taylor Toolworks, and some other brand names. Soba provide these brands with a few lever cap options (brass or iron) but practically these planes are identical.

Both sides..

I was going to reiterate this as well, this rule is really useless...unless your doing foundry work.

@@ericcommarato7727 Thanks so much for this important information Eric.

I can think of something I would use a shrink rule to measure.

Check the nut. See if something is limiting its travel down the screw. If it rides up and down without issues and the nut's wide shoulder ring fits into the blade's groove well, then I think you should be able to project and retrieve the blade with no issues.

@@YoavSamuelLiberman thankyou for your reply. I can turn the adjuster without issue. It seems like the angle of the slope means the blade closes the hole (throat?) Before the blade protrudes.

@@tymbianMake sure to place the blade in a Bevel Facing Up position.

@@YoavSamuelLiberman lol.. I get that.. I could email you a picture possibly. I've just had another look and I see it comes with 2 shims. I take it I'm supposed to fit a shim ( or 2 ) between the removable nose part and the body. This way the mouth would widen and I could slide the blafe further down.
