We follow the #51R Shoot Board Plane from raw iron to finished product in this newest installment of "Inside the Toolworks" For more information on the #51 visit www.lie-nielsen...
Yes expensive! Wooden planes, stanley, bailey, record planes all over 100 hundred years old now lasted the lifetime of others before. The same as disston saws, marples chisels etc. They're tools - not jewels!
All I can say is WOW! What a dedicated team and after seeing the processes start to finish, now I get it. As an end user, thanks each and everyone at the plant! A quote …“ The bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten. “ and thank you for keeping the tradition alive, worth every penny.
I worked in a foundry years ago and @ 2200 degrees, there isn't much that is going to protect you other than common sense. A wonderful video that shows the human side of manufacturing. Think about this video the next time you buy something and think about the amount of precision and care is put into the product.
Wow, I would think the workers would have more protective gear on while when pouring. Nice to see things are still manufactured in the USA. Definitely buying Lie Nielsen.
@@ivans7406 They do it every day. The same motions over and over. It looks more dangerous than it is. They also have a stable workforce. That drives injury rates way down.
It looks dangerous but these guys do it every day. I make newbies use guards on saw stops. I don’t use saw stops in favor of old cast iron machines like Oliver and Wadkin. Safety is nice buts it’s also a compromise of reality. My only significant injury was getting cold cocked by a safety shield at Tharp cabinets. Ownership was to cheap to replace cylinders on the saw guard. I remember waking up on the floor wondering where I was. A safety hood! Really!
Great video, to those people who wonder why the high cost of these wonderful tools made by Lie Nielsen with close tolerances that no other made in USA woodworking tool offers today, BRAVO.
Thanks for watching it! We are working on getting a narrated version out soon. As nice as the imagery is, knowing what is happening would be a bonus. Stay tuned.
Thank you. It was a fun video to put together. Visiting with Enterprise Foundry was a real treat, 3 generations, 2 of which are still working on the floor. I learned and hoped to share the true amount of work that goes into producing our tools.
This was just fascinating -- I revere my Lie-Nielsen tools, and have blissfully enjoyed my two (and counting) weekend workshops...but the foundry end of all this has been a mystery to me. It was wonderful to see the artisans at work producing the tools that make us all better woodworkers...Thank you for the L-N UA-cam channel!
Its nice to see a traditional product made in traditional way (with some modern additions) to last! I worked in a workshop who has the no. 51 , definitely my favorite tool !
Amazing. Shows what it is that you are paying for with your tools. Now I understand what incredible skills and dedication go to elevating a working tool into a piece of art. My next plane will be a Lie-Nielsen!
What a beautiful thing. My opinion is that only us who make things can understand the love it takes to make this happen. Wow ... what a treat. Thank you.
A most informative video, showing skills and processes long forgotten in our mass produced world. I live in Australia but have visited the factory in Maine. I rate it among the highlights of my life. I own several Lie-Nielsen planes among a lot of others and I would not part with them. You get what you pay for in quality and performance.
I own several of their tools, the chisels usually require a little extra honing to suit your own needs/preferences, but so far they are of top notch quality machining and materials.
So nice to see the folks that make the tools I use. I kid not when I say that every time I use one I think of the artisan that made it and now I am using it to further create. Thanks for sharing the video. I cringed when the guy went up the steps while pulling a huge vat of molten metal!
I love these tools (I have four of their planes so far). They are unsurpassed in quality and workmanship, and they are made by a company that is true to its roots and customers. Sure, their products are some of the most expensive available, but, in my book, they are absolutely worth every cent. Great video that provides a nice perspective on why these tools, and Lie-Nielsen, have such a loyal following.
Thank you so much for posting this. In a throw away world, I love how you are dedicated to quality and made in America! I have a few of your tools, and the pennies will have to be saved for this one, but when I get it, I'll respect what goes into making it even more.
Great video that provides an appreciation of the complexities involved in producing a seemingly simple hand tool. The manufacturing of the smoother is actually more involved and challenging than most people would expect...... and explains why this tool is expensive. More important than the cost is what LN tools deliver. For me this has been great performance, reliability and a joy to use. In a world dominated by inferior mass produced junk from China, we should be grateful that LN is still around for those who prefer to invest in high quality hand tools. And just as important LN supporting manufacturing jobs in the USA!
Wow what an amazing video. I've coveted ownership of one of your planes for years and now I understand why they are so expensive! I hope that I will be able to purchase one in the future. I'm a disabled Vet and money is pretty tight but I'm saving up my dollars. I just don't know if I could use one - they are just so amazing. You and your staff are truly artists and my hat is off to all of you. It is so rewarding for me (a veteran) to see such a quality product made n the USA. Thanks.
Great video! As said below, more videos like this. It is fascinating to see the construction of these tools. I can't wait until I have the money for a #51 plane. Thanks!
I make guitars and I have one of these. I use it to square edges of small parts, trim to length, shoot straight edges on necks, braces, fret boards, whatever. This is a fantastic tool. If you do precision work with small parts like I do you will love this tool.
I think that may be a proprietary step, but it is how they make the Ductile Iron, which much stronger and holds its shape then the old gray iron. I would like to have shown the brass being cast but... it is a very similar process, just less heat. We still make a few bolts in house, we have a wonderful company right around the corner that does a great job for us with the others. Thanks for watching.
I loved every second of Americans working steel! While I can't justify purchasing a mitre plane, I should be able to swing a few chisels and hopefully a #4.
You will not regret it! Nielsen used to say "appropriate technology for appropriate jobs". CNC is great but these tools can still do jobs that are best done by hand with these tools. Strive to do the work right. CNC when needed. Go to the workbench when needed.
Thank your good old Donald Trump for increasing the cost of steel in the USA. A so-called businessman who doesn't know his arse from a hole in the ground!
Suppose this plane costs $500 In order to pay each of these people, the overheads, the metals of best quality, the machines and computers, machine and shop maintenance ,and all else...this price is about right. Don't get me wrong....you have to be making a living at your woodwork to afford them, but you will NEVER regret buying the best tools you could.
As we are all in this new world economy together..let's rethink doing things the old fasioned way(old school),people making things with thier own hands.We don't need machines and computers to do everything.There is nothing wrong with manual labor. Machines and computers don't take pride in their workmanship.They only wear out.
Yeah just what we all need. More govt oversight. Great video. Can't wait to make my first purchase. Thinking about going for the works. Nice craftsmanship Lie Nielsen.
I wonder if your workers know how much pleasure they give to the many woodworkers out there when they're grinding and polishing away at the tool parts? I'm going to order the new violin-makers block plane today!.
At first I thought these tools were expensive until I started buying them from LN new instead of used off EBay. There has to be as much work involved in making a #1 as there is a #4, but the price doesn't reflect it, (smaller planes are considerably less than the larger ones)I think the tools are ridiculously under priced and I sincerely hope LN can stay in business. Heirloom quality as they say.
Very nice video. A bit short in the start on the pattern making, but very illustrative. It warms my hart to see work done the traditional way. And nice pun to know that you use a tool to make a tool :-) Master patternmaker - Jens Sigurdson
Watching from Sweden it's like looking back 40 years. Nobody here would be allowed to work with melted metal in a sweatshirt/tshirt and jeans, but rather wear some proper saftey-clothing that the company pays, not the workers..
And at the steps where the crucible glows more violently, what is it that is added, is it some kind of flux, or I don't know the term, but something to "wash" the impurities out of the melt? (If I was prone to nitpicking, I'd say we did not see the brass frogs and lever caps beeing cast, but I guess it's the same foundry (nor do we saw the screws beeing cut, but I guess it wouldn't make any sense to make those in house lol!)) Really Interesting to see from start to finish!
Very cool. surprised by the subpar safety aspect of the operation at the foundry. Workers had no fire resistant clothing, half the workers had half sleeve shirts!!! No sideshields on the safety glasses (i hope it was safety glasses they were wearing). I cringed to see people staring at molten metal without tinted glasses. Very few workers were wearing gloves. The operation at the LieNielsen on the other hand looked much safer. Hope LN can provide feedback to the foundry to ensure safety for all.
LOL! Yes, perhaps. However I am a published composer and sensitive to such things. It strikes me as incongruous, like a beautiful wooden plane with a cheap plastic handle. It is unlawful to give away music without some consideration in return. I would be willing to trade a musical score, license the copyright for your use in perpetuity, in trade for some of those beautiful tools! Tell me what demographic you want to reach & where to send the music. I'll even fill out the paperwork for ya! ;D
Impressive high end tools those are,however i have nevver seen such disregard for worker safety,and not just the metal pouring guys,who are getting their retinas cooked ,the guys making the molds are literally dumping sand inches from their face,the guy sanding the handles....i mean have this people never heard of PPE? with all the money they make they should at least give those men some respirators
Interesting take... I think you may be reading into this to much. I'm happy to change the music if you have a nice piece that you own the rights to and are willing to give to me.
I'm not sure of their exact selection but it's some form of water-immiscible or water-soluble coolant. Places like Enco, KBC, and other industrial supply houses have many varieties.
Meh don’t own a lie Nielsen plane and now I really don’t want to spend the money on one. Everything but the powder coating is fair to good. Powder coat in fresh cast iron and soak with water and stuff...yeah sorry don’t want a rusty plane straight out of box. It should have been baked enamel ie something that is NOT porous!
The targeted demographic would be "natural", "environmentally friendly" and "back to old-fashioned principles" type of individuals. Perhaps featuring something like an acoustic guitar...
I love Lie-Nielson products and own several of their planes. There are few better products on the planet. However watching this, my business instincts kicked in. This company has the same problem the NRA has. Of course guns are inherited every day. As are hand planes. Guns really don't wear out, neither do their hand planes. You can convince someone who ones three guns to buy more guns and ammunition during a panic, a hurricane or a Democrat taking office. You can't do that with hand planes. I was probably one of the very few people in America who reacted to the pandemic by buying a long sought after plane. The market is going to be small. Fortunately the resale value on these planes is so high it makes no sense to buy them used. Still, they must be saturating the market. I have 5 of their planes and want 4 more and 2 Veritas ones. When I die my daughter will probably sell them. Unless gentleman woodworking becomes a fad, they are going to swamp their own market. It baffles me. I hope they have it figured out. We really can't afford to loose this industry. We have so little left.
TheSharkeyandgeorge I really don't think swearing added anything to your comment. I agree with your comment, but not your tact. I know you didn't ask for my opinion, but I feel moved to comment to truly help you. Have a good one.
I love the quality of my LN tools, this but video is ridiculous. They have chosen to use simplistic acoustic guitar music as background for high-tech production of expensive tools; as if those CNC machines, state-of-the-art metal casting and treatments are what... natural? environmentally friendly? back to old-fashioned principles? Think about acoustic guitars, which often use endangered exotic woods, which must be shipped from overseas using fossil fuel. This is a confused fantasy ad.
Ted Koester How does insulting them by calling them dumb (in reality that's what saying they're not smart means) help anyone? There are a lot more productive ways you could have said that.
Expensive? Not really when you consider these tools will last your lifetime and beyond. Not only are they beautiful to behold, they work !
Yes expensive! Wooden planes, stanley, bailey, record planes all over 100 hundred years old now lasted the lifetime of others before. The same as disston saws, marples chisels etc. They're tools - not jewels!

Think about this video the next time you buy something and think about the amount of precision and care is put into the product.
Yeah, a lexan shield and asbestos gloves will only take you so far at 2200 degrees. It is like the Pacific ocean in a Typhoon. A mistake is permanent.
Wow, I would think the workers would have more protective gear on while when pouring. Nice to see things are still manufactured in the USA. Definitely buying Lie Nielsen.
I was also surprised seeing the workers without protective equipment !
@@ivans7406 They do it every day. The same motions over and over. It looks more dangerous than it is. They also have a stable workforce. That drives injury rates way down.

An amazing amount of work goes into making these wonderful tools. Buy once enjoy it for a lifetime.
It is such a joy to watch this video. My dream plane is the 51. I have many LN tools but the 51 was designed to do this.
Thank you. It was a fun video to put together. Visiting with Enterprise Foundry was a real treat, 3 generations, 2 of which are still working on the floor. I learned and hoped to share the true amount of work that goes into producing our tools.
I love everything about the Lie-Nielsen company. Thank you!
Incredible to watch American craftspeople at work. Thanks.
I own a #51, and a bunch other LN tools too. These are ALL top drawer. Yep, they cost, but quality only hurts once!
The term "you get what you pay for" certainly applies here. One, if not the best quality tools money can buy.
What a bizarre way to make a paycheck! I have a lot of respect for these guys!
Such skill and attention to detail. Lucky to have such a great group of artisans to carry on the fine tradition.
This was just fascinating -- I revere my Lie-Nielsen tools, and have blissfully enjoyed my two (and counting) weekend workshops...but the foundry end of all this has been a mystery to me.

Always amazes me at how many hands are part of making one beautiful tool. Makes me appreciate them even more. Great work on the video.
This was a very cool experience. It shows the value of your products should not be underestimated. Thank you.
I am always impressed with LN toolworks. I have a growing collection that I hope to pass down for generations.
A most informative video, showing skills and processes long forgotten in our mass produced world. I live in Australia but have visited the factory in Maine. I rate it among the highlights of my life.

just went to their salt lake city tool-event a couple three weeks ago.
really really cool experience with my uncle and nephews
What? When and where was it? I had no idea they were in town.
So nice to see the folks that make the tools I use. I kid not when I say that every time I use one I think of the artisan that made it and now I am using it to further create. Thanks for sharing the video. I cringed when the guy went up the steps while pulling a huge vat of molten metal!

Fascination insight into making of planes but I kept thinking of the old Stanley workers who did this without modern machinery

After reading the comments , I believe they have covered my thoughts , awesome, got to get another tool from the best ....
Thanks for your comments. We take pride in what we do.
this makes me want to pick up some lie-nielsen tools even more. Sure wish I knew how to use them...
You will not be disappointed. Thanks for watching.
Great video! As said below, more videos like this. It is fascinating to see the construction of these tools. I can't wait until I have the money for a #51 plane. Thanks!
Outstanding craftsmanship

Machines and computers don't take pride in their workmanship.They only wear out.
Отличное видео, спасибо. Благодарность Ли Нильсену за поддержание традиций.
We are hoping for later this year. It is in the works. Thanks for watching.
Interesting to watch
thanks
Yeah just what we all need. More govt oversight. Great video. Can't wait to make my first purchase. Thinking about going for the works. Nice craftsmanship Lie Nielsen.
I wonder if your workers know how much pleasure they give to the many woodworkers out there when they're grinding and polishing away at the tool parts? I'm going to order the new violin-makers block plane today!.
Merveilleuse vidéo!!! I like it, thank you Lie Nielsen.
I don't have words!
WOW, love this. American Made, and such quality! You guys rock, and have a ton of my money now!
At first I thought these tools were expensive until I started buying them from LN new instead of used off EBay.

Super quality tools. A joy to use . How many planes does one buy in a lifetime? Choose wisely.
YES! More Patriots fans! Cool shop too!
Wow. Just, wow.
Это инструмент, которым не просто приятно работать, но и просто в руки взять приятно. Вот что значит сделано в США.
Excellent video (esp. at 1080p)! Narration would be a great addition.
give us more videos like this, like chisels
Great video. Great product. Thanks

Wow, that sure is a lot of work, and hand working too. No wonder it costs £2m for a chisel!
Very cool. surprised by the subpar safety aspect of the operation at the foundry. Workers had no fire resistant clothing, half the workers had half sleeve shirts!!!

The operation at the LieNielsen on the other hand looked much safer. Hope LN can provide feedback to the foundry to ensure safety for all.
That's awesome. Are all your planes made that way?
As shooting plane is rather used for end grain, why wouldn't have designed and manufactured it with low angle bed...?
LOL! Yes, perhaps. However I am a published composer and sensitive to such things. It strikes me as incongruous, like a beautiful wooden plane with a cheap plastic handle.
It is unlawful to give away music without some consideration in return. I would be willing to trade a musical score, license the copyright for your use in perpetuity, in trade for some of those beautiful tools!
Tell me what demographic you want to reach & where to send the music.
I'll even fill out the paperwork for ya! ;D
Beautiful plane but jaw droppingly unsafe working conditions throughout!
Nicely Done. Can't to buy one.
When are going to make a shooting board?
Wow !
Impressive high end tools those are,however i have nevver seen such disregard for worker safety,and not just the metal pouring guys,who are getting their retinas cooked ,the guys making the molds are literally dumping sand inches from their face,the guy sanding the handles....i mean have this people never heard of PPE? with all the money they make they should at least give those men some respirators
Interesting take... I think you may be reading into this to much. I'm happy to change the music if you have a nice piece that you own the rights to and are willing to give to me.
Does anyone know the music used on this?
I think OSHA needs to take a look at this facility...
What is the milk colored milling coolant you guys are using. Been looking for this stuff but cannot find it.
Arnold Emch www.fuchslubricants.com/water-soluble
I'm not sure of their exact selection but it's some form of water-immiscible or water-soluble coolant. Places like Enco, KBC, and other industrial supply houses have many varieties.
Sorry, I meant water-soluble oil.
Je ne peux pas m'en payer un mais je comprend maintenant le prix
Handiwork, handiwork, then along comes CNC.....
You never use gloves when working that close to a rotating tool.
Meh don’t own a lie Nielsen plane and now I really don’t want to spend the money on one. Everything but the powder coating is fair to good. Powder coat in fresh cast iron and soak with water and stuff...yeah sorry don’t want a rusty plane straight out of box. It should have been baked enamel ie something that is NOT porous!
given how bright it is, i'm very surprised their eye protection doesn't have shades on them
Why aren't these foundry worker wearing full protective safety gear, an accident will lead to a certain and horrible death, disgraceful
no background music would be nicer.
Says the guy who posted a video of himself clumsily beating an axe against a wobbly log that he's actually standing on.
The targeted demographic would be "natural", "environmentally friendly" and "back to old-fashioned principles" type of individuals. Perhaps featuring something like an acoustic guitar...
I love Lie-Nielson products and own several of their planes. There are few better products on the planet. However watching this, my business instincts kicked in. This company has the same problem the NRA has.
Of course guns are inherited every day. As are hand planes.
Guns really don't wear out, neither do their hand planes. You can convince someone who ones three guns to buy more guns and ammunition during a panic, a hurricane or a Democrat taking office.
You can't do that with hand planes. I was probably one of the very few people in America who reacted to the pandemic by buying a long sought after plane.
The market is going to be small. Fortunately the resale value on these planes is so high it makes no sense to buy them used. Still, they must be saturating the market. I have 5 of their planes and want 4 more and 2 Veritas ones. When I die my daughter will probably sell them. Unless gentleman woodworking becomes a fad, they are going to swamp their own market.
It baffles me. I hope they have it figured out. We really can't afford to loose this industry. We have so little left.
Id be glad to see one goddamn person working with particulets wear a fricking mask!.
TheSharkeyandgeorge I really don't think swearing added anything to your comment. I agree with your comment, but not your tact. I know you didn't ask for my opinion, but I feel moved to comment to truly help you. Have a good one.
👍
I love the quality of my LN tools, this but video is ridiculous. They have chosen to use simplistic acoustic guitar music as background for high-tech production of expensive tools; as if those CNC machines, state-of-the-art metal casting and treatments are what... natural? environmentally friendly? back to old-fashioned principles?
Think about acoustic guitars, which often use endangered exotic woods, which must be shipped from overseas using fossil fuel.
This is a confused fantasy ad.
amazing that none of these people are smart enough to wear protective clothing while working with hot molten liquid metals
Ted Koester How does insulting them by calling them dumb (in reality that's what saying they're not smart means) help anyone? There are a lot more productive ways you could have said that.
Ted Koester Honestly, maybe they're smart enough to NOT have to!
Sorry. Looks like it would have been a good video to watch but I just can't stand the absurd noise.
