In this edition of Plane Talk... I wanted to continue the topic of reducing tear out. This time with Bevel Up planes such as my Lie-Nielsen 62 and 60-1/2 Block Plane. NOTE: Lower degree bevel = Potentially

PLANE TALK No 4-1/2 Stanley Jumbo Smoother Restoration, Part 4 and Lie-Nielsen Comparison. Tote & knob were touched up and added some fresh top coat. My motto in restoration is: "Less is more"

I would not be without my Lie-Nielsen 60-1/2 Low angle block plane. People have asked about some of the more economical Imports, are they any good? Have a look at the video and decide for yourself.
