Low Angle Adjustable Mouth Block Plane 12 degree

Lie-Nielsen low angle adjustable mouth block plane No. 60 1/2, bedded at 12°. It is 6 1/4" long with a 1-3/8" (3.49 cm) x 1/8" (3.17 mm) thick blade. The body is surface ground flat and square to a tolerance of less than .001" (.0254 mm), and features a moveable shoe to allow precise, easy control over the mouth opening in front of the blade. You can easily adjust the tool to suit the work being done: a very fine mouth setting for finishing work and the merest shavings, or an ample opening for rank cuts.

The bronze cap iron is large and comfortable. It is tensioned with a 1 1/2" (3.81 cm) brass spinwheel. The blade is adjusted with a captive nut for precise control with minimal backlash. The blade is ground with a 25° flat bevel.

This tool has an appealing feel in the hand and is a pleasure to use. It is versatile, of a convenient size, and cuts with the authority of 1 1/2 pounds behind every stroke. Useful for every sort of woodworking job, this tool will quickly become a favorite. An ideal companion to the Low Angle Jack Plane.
