For quickly carrying out rough work where the aim is to level boards or remove large amounts of material. This bench plane's cutting iron is 2" wide and 3mm thick, increasing rigidity, with a hardness of 60-62 Rockwell C, and the cryogenic treatment means that these blades will hold their edge even longer. Made with a quality grey cast iron body for strength and stability with precision ground base and sides for flatness and squareness.

The Knob and Handle are carefully shaped from Bubinga hardwood sanded to fit your hand perfectly and sealed giving a very tactile and comfortable plane.

This ensures absolute stability of the Frog, providing a firm and solid surface for the cutting iron, which again rests on a fully machined upper side of the Frog. This design has probably the most rigid and effective clamping mechanism of any Bench plane available. When used with the extra thick Clifton Cutting Iron and Clifton Two Piece Cap Iron, this design has probably the most rigid and effective clamping mechanism of any Bench plane available. The thickness of shavings I'm achieving with this plane, now that I've changed the battery in my Vernier caliper, are 0. So, to adjust the mouth width, the Frog should be moved backwards or forwards by loosening the outside two of the three screws located at the back of the Frog seating pad (underneath the adjusting wheel), then turning the central screw either clockwise to close the mouth or anti-clockwise to open.has a 50mm wide blade (rather than 45mm and the mouth is 110mm back of the nose compared with 89mm for the original.

The plane features a lateral adjustment lever that is used to ensure the blade sits square to the mouth opening. The accuracy of this mechanism allows for the Cutting Iron to be advanced to give a virtually "Zero" mouth opening, allowing the finest shavings to be taken even on the most difficult of timbers. The Frog and Frog Seating in the body of these Bench planes is based on the Bedrock design, first seen on early Stanley planes, meaning the seating pad in the body is fully machined flat to mate with an equivalent full face and machined, underside of the Frog. Dryad Education, the home of Specialist Crafts is a leading supplier of Art, Textiles, Design and Technology resources to educational establishments, students and artists worldwide. The renowned design has a screw mechanism that allows the frog to be adjusted without removing the blade or lever cap, easily allowing the blade to be adjusted relative to the sole to adjust the mouth opening.Please find set out on this page the terms of business under which all sales on this web site are carried out.

It makes short work of preparing sawn timber and the wider 60mm blade covers more ground when flattening boards. It is often sooner than this however different banks process these with varying levels of efficiency.With the introduction of this plane we trust to have closed the large gap between the cheap planes and the premium planes.
