How to Restore a Rabbet Plane
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 бер 2014
- Woodworkers love hand planes. But in a period shop, the bench planes that are so coveted and extolled today were actually among the minority when it came to the tool inventory. The joinery planes and molding planes vastly outnumbered the bench planes. Today, amateur woodworkers are once again beginning to realize the usefulness of the joinery and molding planes in the small home shop. So the next few episodes are going to be a series on tuning up and using the joinery and molding planes. To kick off the series, I'm starting with the simplest of all the joinery planes, the unfenced rabbet plane.

Did the same. Skew blade rebate off ebay. Lovely plane. When I cleaned it, it had B.V.Peters stamped all over it. Love the history aspect.
Excellent Bob, plus it was most helpful to have the role of the Filister plane noted also as I was confused about the normal usage
Lloyd Williams Thank you!
A brilliant video, really interesting. Thank you.
Mark Harris indeed, my man milk has been expulsed from their chambers
So much helpful info, thanks!
Great video Bob!
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Great video many thanks
*Mmm, rabbet*
"You should have checked for bowing before buying" My dude, I found it in my great great great grandfather's tool box.
I wonder if some makers made the toe deliberately higher (with the plane upright) than the heel. I have a "T" plane where that is the case. It was made in the UK probably mid to late 19th century by Greenslade. Also, the heel is exactly 1.5" wide but the toe is slightly wider (as is the blade abut 1.52"). I'm sure this isn't wear so I'm curious as to why it was like this. It could have been modified post manufacture of course, years of patina have made it impossible to tell.
Thank you for this video! When you grind the sides of the rabbet plane iron down, do you have to put a slight relief angle on them or does it work fine if they are 90 degrees?
Yes, grind in a relief. A 90 degree grind will prevent the iron from cutting right into the corner.
@@BobRozaieskiFineWoodworking Thank you, I really appreciate you taking the time to answer.
note you did not use raw linseed oil?
Anthony newsome Not this time, no.
@@BobRozaieskiFineWoodworking beech wood is made for it. Its the diffuse micropores in the beechwwod that hold it as lubricant and thus stabilizes the shape also. thats why they are made of beech in the first place .Though worth a mention. Regards fine video .
Mmm rabbet
Hi there, I had a quick question about my rabbet plane, but am not sure if you're still looking at comments on this video
Sure
@@BobRozaieskiFineWoodworking Awesome! I was watching the part where you were hand planning the sole, and trying to compare it to my own rabbet plane. Right now, the sole bevels out towards the inner side of the plane, and I'm not sure if I need to plane the sole or to plane the inner side of the plane or if that's how it's supposed to look. Here are pictures of what I am talking about: imgur.com/a/cwk3U73
Can you take a picture of the two sides of the plane? I’m not sure what you have there is a rabbet plane.
@@BobRozaieskiFineWoodworking Sure. Do you happen to have an email I could reach you at? Might be easier than communicating here, but if not I can just post them here

Rabbet ? Rabbet ? don't rabbet's live down holes eat carrots & say whats up doc ? Don't you mean a rebate plane sir Queens English ?
Actually, a rabbet is the English version of the French word rabet which refers to what Bob is cutting in this video. Sometime between the American revolution and today, British English adopted the term rebate. while N. American English retained the original.
