3 Ways to Tame Hand Plane Tear Out

This is an excerpt from a larger lesson on taming tear out in The Hand Tool School. I actually have several lesson on the topic and one that goes into a more technical level about the physics of cutting wood.

These 3 hand plane adjustments will fix 99% of the tear out you encounter. More importantly I show you why they fix the issue to help you diagnose grain tearing in the future.
Check out The Hand Tool School (www.handtoolschool.net) to learn more about the hundreds and hundreds of lessons I have available on hand tools and hand tool techniques.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I haven't gone anywhere. Between 2 podcasts and the full time job of running The Hand Tool School as well as running marketing for a lumber company I have been a bit busy. Nice to be received so warmly after 10 months without uploading a video. More to come this month.

Since Shannon doesn’t upload anymore, I assume I discovered time travel in my sleep and woke up in the past.

Great to see a new video from you Shannon!

[@TWC6724]

Welcome back Shannon!

[@madisonleeds3898]

Dude I’ve binged watched probably every one of your live streams on here and the level of detail you go into on topics not too many people cover and your way of explaining things is simply the best. This channel along with the lumber update podcast has made me such a better hand tool woodworker. Thank you!

Thanks for the Christmas present video, not wanting to mention that time has passed a bit since the original content was filmed and the greying at the temples, Marc has embraced his maturity also but the young whipper snapper Carmona is a few years out.

My experience with the shaving rollong up is the other way around: if the chipbreaker is set super close to the edge, the shavings come out as a straight ribbon. If I move it back (or have no chipbreaker), the shaving curls.

Great info You are a great teacher - regardless of what Cremona and Spags say about you... 😜

Thank yoou1

Good video. It's sharpness and setting. If that is not working cabinet scraper no. 80 does.

[@RenaissanceWW]

I do love a good scraper but I my go to is a card scraper. I tend to use my 80 as a rougher tool.
