Long before Stanley invented the metallic router plane, artisans made their own routers from wood. These shop-made tools were effective and affordable for working craftspeople. Now, Compass Rose Toolworks is reinventing the wooden hand router. Our Router Plane has an extra-large hardwood body contoured for comfort. Instead of a tricky mortise and wedge, our blades are secured with a large brass thumb-screw. Our kit includes two blades in \u00bd&#8221; and \u00bc&#8221; (13mm\/6mm) widths as well as a pair of threaded inserts and an installation tool. The build is straightforward and can be completed in a single afternoon (plus time for the glue to dry.) We want you to be successful in this build, so we&#8217;ve also created a FREE assembly guide and a complete video tutorial on the build. These materials are available to anyone, even if you haven&#8217;t bought the kit yet. <\/p>\n<p>Each kit includes:<br \/>\n&#8211; American ash body in two pieces for easy assembly.<br \/>\n&#8211; Two Cr-V blades, heat treated and ground, ready for final honing.<br \/>\n&#8211; Solid brass thumb-screw with 2 inserts, so you\u2019ve got a backup.<br \/>\n&#8211; Insert installation tool (steel bolt and 2 nuts).<br \/>\n&#8211; Instant access to the PDF assembly guide and video tutorial.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Get your Router Kit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.compassrosetools.com\/store\/p\/router-plane-kit\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.compassrosetools.com\/stor&#8230;<\/a><br \/>\nWatch the Build Video:    \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9vXqPxUJUcE\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Build the Compass&#8230;<\/a><br \/>\nGet the FREE PDF Build Guide: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.compassrosetools.com\/guides\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.compassrosetools.com\/guides<\/a><br \/>\nBuy just the 2 blades: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.compassrosetools.com\/store\/p\/router-plane-blades\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.compassrosetools.com\/stor&#8230;<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-06-at-18-15-00-Make-a-Router-Plane-FAST-with-this-affordable-kit-__-The-Compass-Rose-Router-Quotulatiousness.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-06-at-18-15-00-Make-a-Router-Plane-FAST-with-this-affordable-kit-__-The-Compass-Rose-Router-Quotulatiousness-480x270.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-81200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-06-at-18-15-00-Make-a-Router-Plane-FAST-with-this-affordable-kit-__-The-Compass-Rose-Router-Quotulatiousness-480x270.png 480w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-06-at-18-15-00-Make-a-Router-Plane-FAST-with-this-affordable-kit-__-The-Compass-Rose-Router-Quotulatiousness-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-06-at-18-15-00-Make-a-Router-Plane-FAST-with-this-affordable-kit-__-The-Compass-Rose-Router-Quotulatiousness-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-06-at-18-15-00-Make-a-Router-Plane-FAST-with-this-affordable-kit-__-The-Compass-Rose-Router-Quotulatiousness.png 854w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rex Krueger Published 5 Apr 2023 More about the Router Plane Kit: The Compass Rose Router Plane Kit is your fastest and most affordable path to a quality hand router.
