Watch this first! <\/p>\n<p>I have owned a block plane for all of my woodworking years, that&#8217;s 56 years to date, but I have to say that this plane is a plane I might pull out from the shelf once or twice a month. The thing to remember is that most of the time it will not do what you think it should do and it has very little value as a first plane. <\/p>\n<p>Add it if you think you might have a need of it but don&#8217;t buy it because you think it&#8217;s cute. It&#8217;s probably the last in the list of planes I would buy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Want to learn more about woodworking?<\/p>\n<p>Go to Woodworking Masterclasses for weekly project episodes: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2JeH3a9\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2JeH3a9<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Go to Common Woodworking for step-by-step beginner guides and courses: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/35VQV2o\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/35VQV2o<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2BXmuei\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2BXmuei<\/a> for Paul&#8217;s latest ventures on his blog <\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Instagram &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2oWpy7W\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2oWpy7W<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/33S7RFa\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/33S7RFa<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Pinterest &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/35X5uTf\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/35X5uTf<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Screenshot_2021-05-04-Why-not-to-use-a-Block-Plane-Paul-Sellers.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Screenshot_2021-05-04-Why-not-to-use-a-Block-Plane-Paul-Sellers-480x270.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-65444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Screenshot_2021-05-04-Why-not-to-use-a-Block-Plane-Paul-Sellers-480x270.png 480w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Screenshot_2021-05-04-Why-not-to-use-a-Block-Plane-Paul-Sellers-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Screenshot_2021-05-04-Why-not-to-use-a-Block-Plane-Paul-Sellers-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Screenshot_2021-05-04-Why-not-to-use-a-Block-Plane-Paul-Sellers.png 854w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paul Sellers Published 22 Jan 2021 Thinking of buying a block plane?
