Veritas Small Plow Plane, Left-Hand. While it still excels at cutting grooves, rabbets and tongues, it now has the ability to cut decorative beading.
This is the redesigned Veritas small plow plane. While it still excels at cutting grooves, rabbets and tongues, it now has the ability to cut decorative beading.
Closest in size to the classic Record #044 plane, the preferred size of the old-style plow planes, it has a 6 5/8" long fence that registers solidly to the workpiece and is through-drilled to accommodate the addition of a wooden fence extension.
The asymmetric fence grip is sculpted to comfortably fit the natural curvatures of the hand. Double guide rods and a special collet locking system prevent the fence from racking. Large brass knobs make adjustments fast and easy without need for tools; the fence can be offset from flush to 1 1/2" from the 1/4" blade.
The adjustable shoe, secured directly by a brass knob, controls the depth of the groove or rabbet (maximum 1/2" deep) and has relieved edges to avoid marking your work.
The large wooden rear tote offers a solid, comfortable grip, and the 9" long ductile cast-iron body weighs 1 3/4 lb and is machined with a 45° blade bed. Supplied with a 1/4" wide lapped A2 tool steel blade. This left-hand version of the plow plane is designed for left-handers. A right-hand version of the plane is also available separately for right-handers.
The plane is available alone or with blade sets. The Imperial standard set includes the small plow plane with 1/4" blade plus 1/8", 3/16", 5/16" and 3/8" blades. The metric standard set includes the small plow plane with 1/4" blade plus 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm and 10mm blades.
The complete Imperial set includes all Imperial standard, wide and tongue-cutting blades, beading blades plus a conversion kit. Likewise, the complete metric set includes all metric standard, wide and tongue-cutting blades, a conversion kit plus three Imperial beading blades (only available in Imperial).
Additional standard blades in Imperial or metric sizes are available separately. Wider blades and specialty blades for cutting tongues and for beading are also available. For blades over 3/8" wide and all tongue blades, a wide-blade conversion kit is required.
Made in Canada. An excellent (and quieter) alternative for work often performed with a router. Patented.

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.
