I just saw this video because James Wright mentioned it while discussing his history with his channel and how it all began. Thought you'd like to hear that you were an inspiration!
Such a relaxing video to watch (4yrs after its made). I’m not even a woodworker. In fact I don’t even own any wood working tools and here I am subscribing to this channel due to quality and sheer craftsmanship.
Beautiful work, and your skill with hand tools is evident. The school for homeschool kids is a great idea and I wish you the best in this endeavour! Mike.
Great format! Easy to understand and follow project steps for the new learners. Great complement/lab to your school videos where you discuss the “why” in depth.
Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful...........I'd will donate to your school and buy some products too. Thank You for helping kids and adults discover themselves through woodwork. John
This was a nice video. I picked up on a few tricks I can use in tuning my own wooden planes. I have two old wood planes, a rebate plane and a grooving plane. Fine tuning them has been a bit of a challenge but, coming along well. It's the wedges for the grooving plane I'm finicking around with and they aren't seating behind the iron very well...
Yes, that's a good tip. However, the gaps I'm getting are so large, you can drive a truck through them! I think it's in part due to the iron not being as flat as it can be and the pocket was chiseled out more to fit that iron. (I may have to flatten the iron, no big deal) BTW, the hand plane is an Auburn Tool Co. plane, circa 1864-1893. So, I have an antique on my hands. I've already sharpened the blade and knicker iron and it does function quite nicely, as is. I'm just tweaking it to make it better. Thanks for your reply... :-)
I'm normally annoyed by the lack of narration, but I just couldn't find the close button for this one. Every step was very well illustrated. Very nicely done! Agree with the others about linking your website.
It was certainly "worth the effort" to watch this video. Actually, effortless and quite enjoyable. It's nice to see a person working slowly, deliberately without a lot of stupid music or babble. I'm just learning about hand planes (at 58!) so I appreciate this. Machines have their place, and so do hand tools. I'm happy to see you using both to fabricate this nice plane. Best of luck with the school. And to you sir! In today's rush-rush world people have no idea how to make things, only buy them. They should be flocking to your school. Thanks for a great video.
+Mark Williams Thanks. Unfortunately the school died quickly but I'll continue producing educational content online along with these more artsy-fartsy ones.
SerJahPhoto I really don't have too many specialty tools, but what I have has been accumulated over decades. The skill is stuff anyone can learn. Woodworking is not a 'talent' activity, it's a learned skill activity.
This was the best video of your that I have ever seen and I think you should make these in pairs a tongue and grove planes they would sell out like hot potatoes Really great effort the best out of all your videos by far 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 I'd fly out to Texas to watch you make all these old style planes all day
Without any emotion and expression on his face. And this nonchalant behaviour in relation to the wood. Absolutely master. Did he use plain oil at the end?
Another excellent video from wortheffort. I have a big old English jointer plane that I'm sure was made with the same craftsmanship and attention to detail. It was a good enough tool that the owner - or someone - put a nicely fitted patch at the throat to give it many more years of use. Keep up the great work!
Hello, I have a doubt, how do you decide in which side of the stock you put the iron? or we should have two of this, one to plane to the right and other to plane to the left? Because, if I´m not wrong, the fibers orientation may not allow you to plane if you dont have the plane with the proper orientation. Thank you very much.
For most people it's if you're left handed or right handed. In the real world you don't need to worry about the grain direction on the bottom of a groove because nobody will see the tear out. These are parts of joints so another piece of wood will cover it up. It's why all those combination planes Stanley made were only right hand versions. Also, old timers would pick would that didn't fight them much, straight grain in all directions. But yes... I built two, L & R versions. Why? Just because.
this video aged perfectly. the beauty of it is it dont matter how old . still great.
I just saw this video because James Wright mentioned it while discussing his history with his channel and how it all began. Thought you'd like to hear that you were an inspiration!
What a nice tools you have and you make. Like the balance of mechanical and electrical tools.
Thanks
... true craftmanship,without the use of power tools- so nice to see the old traditional ways being used ....
Such a relaxing video to watch (4yrs after its made). I’m not even a woodworker. In fact I don’t even own any wood working tools and here I am subscribing to this channel due to quality and sheer craftsmanship.
Thanks
My artsy fartsy playlist is mainly this type of work.
The intersection of utility, art, precision, and craftsmanship. Thanks very much for the video.
Thanks
2 Planes Up!!! An enjoyable presentation with good nat sound ... great video and close-ups to boot. Thanks for the detailed instruction. Brady
Well done...inspired me to make a bead plane...liked your meticulous method.
bead planes are more useful than you think.
Don't know your name but, you're an inspiration for beginners and fun to watch a good quality video, I thank you for that.
+ronin4711 Thanks
Mr. Wortheffort, still didn't get your name...
Or it's a secret?
this guy is a craftsman from the past
Extremely skilled craftsman with top end hand tools going though bunch of different techniques. Makes me want to do some woodworking.
Beautiful work, and your skill with hand tools is evident. The school for homeschool kids is a great idea and I wish you the best in this endeavour!
Mike.
Pedunculopontine it just takes a little practice, and I mean very little. Anybody can do this. Thanks
Elevating woodworking videos to an art form. Relaxingly informative!
more in this style are in the works.
Great format! Easy to understand and follow project steps for the new learners. Great complement/lab to your school videos where you discuss the “why” in depth.
Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful...........I'd will donate to your school and buy some products too. Thank You for helping kids and adults discover themselves through woodwork. John
thank you . you are a very talented young man who passes on great info . again thank you
Thanks, but I was 48 at this time.
and a good looking man at that . we are all young to someone i am broken down 65
Well done, you don't many craftsmen building their own tools.
This was a nice video. I picked up on a few tricks I can use in tuning my own wooden planes. I have two old wood planes, a rebate plane and a grooving plane.

Use carbon paper to see where they're hitting then a scraper to remove just the black parts.
Yes, that's a good tip. However, the gaps I'm getting are so large, you can drive a truck through them! I think it's in part due to the iron not being as flat as it can be and the pocket was chiseled out more to fit that iron. (I may have to flatten the iron, no big deal)

I just found your site here. You sir are a real artist. But I can tell you never had done this before! Wink Wink
Pretty funny watching you toss it around on the bench.
+s0nnyburnett yeah. haha. such an eloquent video up until that point.
Qualunque marchingegno elettronico impallidisce. Semplicemente: Fantastico!
got lost in the enjoyment great video.
+dubtown man Thanks
His voice at the end surprised me ...my gawd lol. Wish I could work with this guy.
Ya, sounds like a chipmunk on helium.
That was very enjoyable.
Keith Peters thanks
The best 31 minutes of my day! tks!!!
Thank you for showing us how to make a groove plane, loved every minute.
Thanks
That my friend is pretty awesome. I love it. Thank you for sharing. I hope you have a blessed week.
Dale
Thanks
Nicely done video Shawn, you always do good work in your presentation, let alone your mastery of hand tools, thanks.
Thanks, but no master... anyone can do my level of work with a minimal of experience.
A great video - sorry to hear about the school but keep up the good work of teaching us all with these videos!
Thanks
Great video, especially for a one man shop. Looking forward to many more videos in future.
I'm normally annoyed by the lack of narration, but I just couldn't find the close button for this one. Every step was very well illustrated.
Very nicely done!
Agree with the others about linking your website.
Thanks
i can't decide if this guy is twenty-two or forty-five but he eems to know what he's doing so that's pretty good i guess
Either way you made me younger than reality. So thanks.

What magnificent work, and a nice result too. I really like to watch the whole process this way. Thanks
Willem Kossen Thanks
Very Nice! You are very good with a hand saw. I would have been nervous making some of those long cuts.
It's easier than it looks. Notice relief cuts first? Saw follows path of least resistance.
Wow! Good making.
Great work and great video. Appreciate your time.
That's a wonderful shop.
This was the best video of your that I have ever seen and I think you should make these in pairs a tongue and grove planes they would sell out like hot potatoes

Muito obrigado por sua generosidade. Você é um grande mestre!
Without any emotion and expression on his face. And this nonchalant behaviour in relation to the wood. Absolutely master. Did he use plain oil at the end?
True craftsmanship!
Thanks

Your chisels look like they are so sharp, you just have to wave them in the general direction of the wood!
Wonderful.
Thanks
What a great video, thank you for sharing!
Yes indeed, am going to make the bead plane to add the bead on siding edge boards.

Sehr cooles Video, klasse gemacht, auch mit welcher Ruhe und Genauigkeit du den Hobel herstellt, Danke
Thanks?
Groovy.
Plus
You got more planes than Davis Monthan, I can see why you would need another :p
First off great work
It ocured to that dropping the marker gauge into the dog hole could induce error if the set screw was not cranked down tight
Walt Lars you are probably right. habits we get into...
This music is so grateful, how can i find it?
