Making a Japanese Scraper Plane (tachi kanna) - with plans

- This is how I built a tachi kanna, aka Japanese scraper plane. This is the Isuka style, which has a blade skewed at 7 degrees, for a better slice. It is great for tuning up the full sized kanna. I made it out of a block of beech wood and the blade of an old coopering plane.

What bevel angle do you use for the iron (blade)? I've read in a book from Scott Wynn that as a plane's bedding angle increases, bevel angle may be increased as well, he mentions a plane bedded at 65 degrees can have a 35-40 degree bevel angle. By this logic a scraper plane could have a 70 degree bevel angle? I wonder what is the angle used by tachi kannas made in Japan?
I am using a 60 degree bevel on the blade. 70 should work also. On bevel down planes, all the cutting happens on the flat side of the blade, so you just need at least 10 degrees of clearance (rake).
Wonderful video. Good technique. Please turn down music, so we can properly hear you talking.
Thank you!
I can't change the sound levels on this video, but I have improved the audio on my more recent videos.
Where did you buy angle marking tool ?
been looking for a while for a good one like that.
That is the Shinwa steel protractor.

I think I bought mine at Rockler Woodworking, but I haven't seen them there in a while. The one on Amazon is the same one I use.
Where do you buy your blades?
I buy Japanese blades from a store in Berkeley called Hida Tool & Hardware.
If you are using a wooden wedge with it, you can use any flat blade, like the iron from a block plane or a flat piece of steel.
