Definitely looking forward to hearing more about what a scratch stock is and how it’s used. Never heard of it but seems like a thing I need to know about
I got to repair an eighteenth century mahogany sideboard a while back.
Some of the moulding was missing so I used the existing moulding to prepare a cutter for a scratch stock but decided to show off and built a tiny moulding plane instead. Now I have the plane and the owner of the sideboard is happy. The plane was for making a Cock Bead to wrap around drawer fronts. A scratch stock would have been the more efficient use of time but I wanted to try my hand at making a simple plane. Thanks for this demonstration!
The day after I watched this video, I picked up a book from Lee Valley, "Wooden Planes and How To Make Them". In the chapter on making custom moulding planes, they mentioned using a scratch stock to shape the sole of the moulding plane. In the space of 24 hours, I went from never having heard of them to two different sources mentioning them! :D
Beautiful tool, beautiful wood. Can't wait to have a project that will be the perfect excuse to make one. So many cool things to make from wood, so little time!
You're absolutely right, had no clue what the heck this tool was, but now I do and it's a very cool tool, looking forward to the rest of the videos on the series.
I've seen a few of these before, but didn't know what they were or how to use them. It seems simple and a fun was to add a little detail.
Very cool! didn't know this tool! Looking forward to see how you make those blades!
Wow, thank you. I've never seen one before. I'm gonna have to make one.
Fantastic work, James! Really beautiful tool! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Always interesting to see tools I've never heard of.
Great video. I just made myself a panel guage at the weekend, but I don't have a cutter for it. I'll probably wait until you do your scratch stock blade video and steal that method!
I'm not sure what James is going to use for his cutter, but I get old carbon steel kitchen knives at thrift stores to make mine with.
Scratch stocks are invaluable for making molding and refinishing molding. I've got two coffee cups full of cutters that I've made over the years.
Maybe you can flip the body around and use the rounded portion for scratching curves?
I guess I need a scratch stock. Who knew?! 😊
This is an head scratching video!!!
These are so underrated
Wonderful video. Very informative.
The first time I used a scratch stock it was for the moulding on a bespoke winding mahogany staircase there are some jobs that can't be done with any other tool
Hmm, i know what i build next week! 😄
Talking about rasp n files, I made a wall shelf for mine just like yours!
When would a moulding plane, beading plane be prefered to a scratch stock?
A molding plane can take off a lot more material than a scratch stock. A scratch stock is used for small details or the final cleanup behind freehand carving. A beating plane is useful when you're doing multiple beads side by side. Scratch that can do it but it takes a lot more work.
do you think you could tap a thread in the oak and screw into that instead of using the wing nuts? 🤔
Sure. I've done that quite a few times.
If we start from Scratch are we at the beginning, which is a very good place to start! LOL. Twice now with the same song, not bad for a beginner/scratcher!
Lol. He's on his roll folks
@@WoodByWrightHowTo LOL!
thank you
Nice.
So, I can use metal working files in my woodworking?
Yes.
Does this work well on cross grain?
Depending on the cutter shape ... it can.
Haha, it appeared in the previous video and I was wondering what it was
It's worth mentioning that plans for this scratch stock can be found in ShopNotes magazine, volume 20, issue 119, page 38
First! Was good to chat
Woot woot! the first king of the day!
Cutting that oak with that saw looks like using a shark to slice a hotdog.
lol I like that one.
