Lie-Nielsen skew block plane, bronze, right-hand. Based on the long unavailable Stanley 140, this multi-talented tool is designed to deal with difficult woods using a combination of a low angle approach, shear cutting action from the skewed and tilted blade, and the extra weight of the bronze body.

A retractable nicker scores cross-grain fibers, and the removable side plate and adjustable fence allow quick conversion to rabbeting and cross-grain work, such as fielding raised panels. Available in a left and right-hand version, for occasions when you need to approach the wood grain from the opposite direction.

The planes work the same way and have the same blade, frog and precision, so the difference is the material of the body:
Bronze – heavier, which gives a calm, steady stroke, and it does not rust. The surface develops an attractive patina over time.
Cast iron – a little lighter and less expensive. The surface needs protecting against rust with wax, for example.
A No. 4 smoothing plane in bronze weighs 2 kg, for example, while the same plane in cast iron weighs 1.8 kg. Choose bronze if you want extra mass and no rust, and cast iron if you want a lighter plane at a lower price.
Most products are restocked on an ongoing basis, but delivery times from the manufacturer vary. When an item is out of stock, the button Notify me when available appears on the product page.

How often items are restocked depends on the supplier. We receive deliveries from Veritas about once a month, Lie-Nielsen ships in batches and we order from Incra about once a year. You can also add the item to a wishlist in your account, where you can see whether it is in stock.
Which plane to start with depends on what you will do, but for most people a smoothing plane (No. 4) or a jack plane (No. 5) is a good first choice. The smoothing plane gives smooth surfaces, and the jack plane is a versatile plane for both rough work and truing edges.
Low-angle jack planes such as the Lie-Nielsen No. 62 and the Veritas low-angle jack are also popular all-round planes. A block plane is a good addition for end grain and chamfers. The guide explains how the hand plane is built and which types exist.
A shoulder plane and a rebate plane both have a blade that reaches the edges, but they are used for different tasks. The shoulder plane is narrow and precise and is used to trim tenon shoulders and adjust joints, often on end grain. The rebate plane often has a fence and depth stop and is used to cut rebates along an edge.
The guide explains when to choose which.
Planes of cast iron and steel rust easily, especially in unheated workshops and from moisture on your hands. Wipe the plane after use and protect bare surfaces with a thin layer of wax or oil that will not mark the wood.
Store your planes dry, ideally in a plane sock or box. If rust has already formed, the guide shows how to clean and protect them.
