Very well filmed and informative video, Thank You.
You're welcome Chris!
@Free Speech Thanks! I haven't ever considered doing a video on a cigar mold press, because I've never even heard of one until now :)
Yes, please tell us about tuning smoothing planes!
I'd certainly enjoy watching you tune a smoothing plane.
Yes on tuning a smoothing plane
Yes, I would love some help on tuning a plane
The fact that you showed each one working while you spoke of it was uniquely useful. How many tutorials out there merely show the hand tool, but have no demonstrated application on a board. I can only guess your classes are impressive. Thanks for sharing your experience
Yes on tuning a smoothing plane video
Yes, please! Can always use more information on tuning a plane
Would really enjoy your take on refurbishing a hand plane!
tell us how to tune a smoothing plane please!
yes please - interested in your take on tuning planes
I would enjoy a video on tuning up a hand plane.
Good coverage of these planes, thanks!
A video regarding smoothing plane tuning would be helpful, Thanks
A video on tuning up a vintage Bailey #4 or #5 would be great.
My legs went weak when you flashed the flea market shot of all the woodworking tools. I wish I could find a stall like that! They'd earn all my money very easily.
yes please, id like to see a video on tuning a plane
It's always good to see new opinions and techniques on tuning planes.
So yes, another vote for a tuning video.
Good video. Very informative. Thanks.
Just found u! Love your no frills attitude. Why spend a boat load when u don't have to. Great production too!
Thanks for the kind words Jim!
Great introductory video for those of us less familiar with planes and their specific applications.
I'm mostly a "machine" type woodworker, but there's nothing quite like a well tuned, sharp old Stanley hand plane for some instant gratification. I've looked around at most of the modern planes available today, and frankly I don't see the value in spending that much money on a single tool. I would much rather find an old Stanley at a flee market, garage sale or any place else people sell old tools. I enjoy bringing it home and refurbishing it, I find that very satisfying. Great video, New subscriber.
I think we're on the same page Thomas...welcome aboard!
Yes, definitely make a plane tuning video please!
Great introduction for those of us unfamiliar to planes and their specific applications.
I would appreciate your advice on tuning a plane. Thanks.
I enjoyed your comparison and details. Def would enjoy seeing you take on tuning a smoothing plane.
Excellent video! I learned a lot from it. Thank you!
yes on tuning up the plane!
Great information. Yes on tuning a plane.
Adding a vote for the highly-tuning-up of a hand plane video. This would be valuable indeed. Thank you!
As a guitar making hobbyist, i am very fond of Lie Nielsen block planes :D
I really like my coffin planes, and love my wooden jointer. I do t find them hard to adjust, a tap here, a tap there, sometimes don’t even need a hammer to adjust, any reasonable hard surface suffices.
Yeah, they're awesome, and really don't take much longer to adjust.
Thank you Joshua, that was a lot of well-presented information that is much appreciated.
You're most welcome Bill!
Excelent! I'm going to buy my first handplane and this vídeo was very useful!
Good info abaut hand planes , I like that 👍 waiting the next video 😊 .
Agree, please tell us about tuning smoothing planes!
Excellent video!
Great video thank you, looking forward to see in class.
Who and why would anyone give this a thumbs down?!??🤔🎩 here goes a thumbs up👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻
That's up till now the best video on handplanes for woodworking I saw till noww... and I watched quite a few. Keep up the good work ... maybe with a video on tuning smoothing planes ;-)
Your videos and explanations are always superb. Yes, please make a video on tuning planes up.
Thanks
bl
Thanks for the kind words Bob!
Most enjoyable to watch. Cheers from Tasmania
Thank you very much Mate, Cheers!
I am always interested in the most effective way of rehabbing a plane.
A video on tuning would be great! I've just purchased some older planes and seem to not be able to tune the blade adjustment very well
Thank you for the information
You're most welcome Tim!
Totally confusing but that is the nature of the beast. I love my old planes and they perform well if well sharpened, and there by hangs the tale. Good sharpening is everything to me. Then tweek the setting and go for it.
Yes, please tell us about tuning smoothing planes
Yes. Tuning a plane video. Please.
Teach us how to tune handplanes!
good video thanks for sharing
Tuning a plane video is great idea
PS.. I use my block planes nearly every day. Love them when they are setup well. .
I would very much like to see a video on tuning up a smoothing plane. I am fairly new to hand tools although I have used power tools forever. I have the bug now for hand work!
Great video
Definitely need advice on tuning and set up. I've gone down the route of buying old planes. Couldn't find one in reasonable condition so I bought two and will use one for parts.
Please do a video on tuning hand planes. Thanks!
Please make the plane rehabbing video
17:57 and 18:39 best advice
Excellent video! Please add my vote for a video about highly tuning a steel smoother.
Thanks Joe!
I think I know how to get a smoothing plane pretty finely tuned, which probably just means I don't know much and I'm ignorant of the mistakes I'm making. I'd really value and appreciate a detailed tuning smoothing planes video please.
Please do a video about tuning handplanes. My specific issue is one you mention, closing the gap on the chipbreaker. thanks.
Video on tuning a plane would be nice.
Thanks Joshua, excellent and informative video. Just one small piece of advice to your subscribers, avoid new Stanley block planes, the soles are bent like Bananas and you can strike matches on the finish. Appalling. Regards Jim UK.
Ha, ha, maybe Stanley lost the recipe?
My Stanley block plane's sole is flat enough, but the bed is so uneven that the iron extends almost 1mm further on the left side than the right. Essentially unusable. Could've spent the same money on a vintage one that was made when QC still existed.
@@ArgyleAdams Yeah, QC is a lost art. Although I'm struggling with an old handplane with the same problem right now.
I would LOVE if you made a video about plane tuning!
It's on my to-do list!
@@WoodAndShop I guess you never got around to it?
I have a few old style planes but I just can't get them adjusted correctly. A lesson in refurbishing and fine adjustment would be greatly appreciated.
Nice info...sub earned
Ace content 🔥 and easy to follow and yes please 🙏 show how to tune a plane
Thanks for the kind words!
The little scrub plane that you do not prefer was, I believe, developed for the carpentry trade. They are excellent for backing out moldings and casings, taking down the high spots on beams and studs in preparation for wall finishes, etc. I always include mine in my tool kit when doing remodeling work, especially on old houses.
You got it exactly right Ted!
Fantastic! Thanks a lot for all the tips! 😃
I need to buy a few planes, still couldn't... But one thing I would love to do is to make wooden planes. 😃
Well... Some day!
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Cool! Check out Bill's video on building the wooden jointer plane. That'll get you going on making wooden planes.
@@WoodAndShop I'm going to! Thanks a lot! 😃
Do you have a link?
Everytime I watch a plane video I end up buying another 😂.............. 🚫
Ha! Well hopefully now you won't buy the wrong ones William!
Please do a tune up video.
Hey Josh, thanks for the information you put on your video. I just need a plane for trimming and most importantly for creating wood shavings for crafty projects. Do you have any suggestions for me? Thanks again.
I would love a rehab video
Thank you Joshua. I've purchased some hand planes over the years and have enjoyed using them. I don't have a lot of money to spend on planes and I try to get only the essential planes - like the ones you mentioned. I enjoy refurbishing old tools. Not long ago I found an old junkie block plane, like the one you show toward the end of the video, and turned it onto something I can use. It's not a Stanley low angle block plane but it was free. And as we all know, free is good. Looking forward to more.
Hi Doug, I just want everyone to know that they don't have to drop hundreds of dollars on handplanes. Great comment!
'Which ones you may never need' ---- *close up of scrub plane* hahaha actually laughed
Nice!
I have a metal #4 from my grandfather and metal #5 I got for 10 dollars used. Should I get any other planes?
Nice! It's way more special having a plane from your family. I would just get a #7 now. You're on your way!
Hi, thank you very much for making this Video. I am a mom of an 18 month old toddler, and I want to make a cutting board out of solid wood. I want to use hand planer instead of sanding tool to avoid the dust. But I don’t know if the hand planner is toxic free to me jae something that will contact food directly. Is there a coating on the base of the steel? Is there lead or other toxins in the steel? I couldn’t find any info on website, could you please suggest? Thank you very much!
Let me join the chorus for a video for tuning up a plane!
I would like to see that video of refurbishing a hand plane
If you're listening, my first plane I bought was a vintage Craftsman No. 4 that I set up for scrubbing and then I bought a Taylor No. 5 for $99, which I tuned up for smoothing. Did I do that backwards? The Taylor is nice and I didn't want to spend $99 for a scrub when my Craftsman cost me $30.
Also, should I add a no. 7 to my lineup? I'm holding off on that unless I spot a real gem for a low price on craigslist.
Was the “Tuning a smoothing plane” already made? I can’t seem to find it.
Yes tune up plains
Yep do a tunning up video
More about tuning wooden planes?
Thanks for the suggestion Kevin...I'll try to do a video on that.
Can you tell me where you got the image of the advertisement at 8:11?
I have my great grandfathers wooden smoothing plane,he put carpentry on hold as more money was paid to miners that could operate the "buzzy" a hard rock drill "He died of miners consumption at age 29.
Cool about the plane, buy sad about his death.
How do you like that Moravian workbench?
I love all 5 of them! I'm the one who made the video: store.woodandshop.com/product/digital-download-building-the-portable-moravian-workbench-with-will-myers/
And any particular brand that you can suggest I’d appreciate it.
Does anyone know where this school is located??? Thanks.

Hey Joshua, I see you post pictures of people selling hand-tools out of the back of their truck and such, what is the name of this meeting and where can we find out about them?

@@WoodAndShop thank you sir
Where is your article that you wrote about planers to be found

Make the tuning up video
Great video. A video on tuning up antique old planes would be great!
As a newish woodworker. thank-you ,so much for your knowledge and wisdom given out to us. Again thanks a million
can a plow plane be used to cut rabbets?
That would be hard because the iron would be touching the fence.
@@WoodAndShop i guess i could leave a small gap between the iron and the fence and pair it off after?
@@blueace115 Yes, that is absolutely an option. You can use a bench plane to plane off the strip of wood!
With respect, I was taught to never rest a plane down on its planing sole (base). This because the cutting edge being theoretically at least, honed down to infinity, those last few atoms of metal at the edge can easily become damaged even by a wooden surface. Best to lay it on its side.
Very informative otherwise though, thank you.
I've never seen a Rabbit 🐇 use a plane 🤣🤣🤣
Please tune a no.4
Excellent video! 👍❤
Just wanted to say, on Bedrock planes, the tiny bit of 'improvement' they have doesn't justify their high prices! A craftsman does not need one of those planes to get excellent results!
If only the prices were still as cheap as shown in the video. Good luck finding a decent vintage OR new metal jack plane for under $70. If its been restored at all and isnt a frankenstein, good luck payin under $120
