How to Adjust the Lateral Lever of a Bench Plane | Paul Sellers

Filed under: Tools, Woodworking — Tags: , , — Nicholas @ 02:00

Paul Sellers
Published 18 Jun 2021

Starting out with a bench plane can be daunting and, especially is this so, if you don’t understand the mechanisms that work to adjust the settings.

In this case, I discuss how to use the lateral adjustment lever that enables you to set the cutting edge of the plane iron parallel to the face of the sole. This unique feature revolutionised the adjustability of alignment to make it quick and simple to do but, more than that, it allowed us to immediately compensate when we hone our plane irons out of square.

How to Set a Cap Iron | Paul Sellers

Filed under: Tools, Woodworking — Tags: , , — Nicholas @ 02:00

Paul Sellers
Published 22 Apr 2021

You can 20 expert woodworkers about what distance to set the cap iron (chip-breaker in the USA) fore-edge to the cutting edge and get 20 different suggestions. Why? Because generally speaking, it is undefined. I personally find that 1/32″ (1mm) works well but watch this video and you will see that you can set it anywhere between 1/32″ and 1/8″ and it will still cut nicely. Myth and mysteries often have no real substance to them so, this is done to bust them.
