Making a Plane from Scratch Part 3: Final Assembly

After casting and machining, the final assembly involves making the Tote and Knob, Iron, Chip Breaker and the Screw Cap. The fit and finish of the plane will be addressed as well.

[@davidpeters8813]

Amazing work! Someday I'd like to buy one. 🙂

[@scottmassey6948]

Beautiful. Very cool process. Thanks for sharing!

[@DaveCorinth]

It’s an evolving process, I learn something new every time I make a run of these.

[@G4m1c]

Some people would say you need to "put the plane in tension" when lapping the sole. But for a small plane like that it probably doesn't matter?
Anyway, it's gorgeous!

[@davidpeters8813]

It doesn't matter for a full size plane either. 🙂

[@SvenOlavSolvold]

There are several factors in play that could affect this. And all of the scenarios where having a blade mounted is a very smart thing to when lapping the sole, involves a frog.
This plane has a frog as a part of its body, so it should not affect the lapping process at all.

[@thomasdickey356]

Interesting to see your process.

[@DaveCorinth]

Thanks for watching!

[@yooper5638]

Very nice. I would totally buy one. Have you considered Japanning the body instead of painting it?

[@DaveCorinth]

I haven’t tested japanning on brass yet, but I considered doing just that.

[@himtallica]

first lol When are we going to see some for sale ?

[@DaveCorinth]

Soon….I’m making 20 at the moment. Once I have those made I’ll post them for sale. I’m going to make a Store with the tools I make and restore available here on UA-cam.

[@bobweiram6321]

If you like sap wood, then use Sap-elle. 😂 Do you plan on making a cast iron #1 replica or the never manufactured non-existent bedrock 601?

[@DaveCorinth]

Superior Toolworks makes a Bedrock 601. But I am making a no 1 sized low angle like the 164.

[@The.Finger.Boarder]

Are these for sale sir?

[@DaveCorinth]

They will be soon. I’m going to have a store here on UA-cam.
