This plane is designed for creating precise rebates (grooves along the edge of a piece of wood) and fillisters (grooves parallel to the grain).
Yes, it features two cutter positions, one of which is specifically for bull nose work.
The cutter depth is adjustable in the rear position using the dedicated adjustment mechanism. The depth gauge also helps control the rebate depth.
The plane is manufactured from fine grey iron, known for its strength and durability.
The total cutter width is 1 1/2 inches (38mm).
Yes, an adjustable fence is supplied with the plane to help control the dimensions of the rebate.
Keep it clean and dry, sharpen the cutter regularly, and lightly oil metal parts to prevent rust.
Ensure the cutter is sharp and properly set. Check that the fence is securely positioned and the plane is advanced with consistent pressure. Verify the workpiece is held firmly.
Engage the cutting spur by ensuring it is correctly positioned and making light contact with the wood before the main cutter engages.
Adjust the depth gauge carefully and ensure it is making consistent contact with the workpiece surface. Check for any play in the adjustment mechanism.
The cutter may be set too deep. Back off the depth adjustment slightly. Ensure the sole of the plane is clean and free from debris. Sharpen the cutter if it feels dull.
