Designed to seat nicely in the hand, the smallest Veritas shoulder plane is easily controlled with a one-handed grip. The lever cap wraps around the rear of the body, shrouding the adjustment mechanism so it does not obstruct the grip while giving a comfortable palm rest.
Designed to seat nicely in the hand, the smallest Veritas shoulder plane is easily controlled with a one-handed grip.
The lever cap wraps around the rear of the body, shrouding the adjustment mechanism so it does not obstruct the grip while giving a comfortable palm rest. The through-hole and textured recesses in the sides give grip points for the fingers.
The plane weighs 1 lb 2 oz and has a 6 1/4" long, 1/2" wide sole. The ductile cast iron body is accurately machined and ground so the sole and sides are flat and square. The adjustable toe lets you restrict the mouth for very fine shavings with minimum tear-out.
The low 15° bed angle combined with the 25° blade bevel gives a 40° cutting angle for exceptional end-grain work. Side set screws position the blade accurately so it needs no lateral adjustment when replaced after sharpening.
Supplied with a lapped O1 tool steel blade.
There are several good ways to sharpen chisels and plane irons: water stones, diamond stones, oil stones and sharpening machines such as Tormek. All give sharp edges, but they differ in speed, maintenance and price.
A honing guide makes it easier to keep the same angle every time. The most important thing is to find a method you enjoy and use often. The guide helps you choose.
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.
A new replacement iron can make an old plane better than it was when new. To find the right one, measure the iron's width, thickness and slot dimensions, and check whether the plane has a cap iron and what kind of adjuster it has.
A thicker iron chatters less but may require the mouth to be adjusted. The guide shows how to measure and choose correctly. You can also send us a photo of the iron with a rule beside it, and we will help you. We do not sell adjusting screws or other spare parts for old Stanley planes.
