Hand Planes for Every Woodworking Task
Having the correct plane is critical for both efficiency and the final quality of your work. Our collection covers the full spectrum of wood planes for manual planing. Bench planes are the foundation of any workshop, used for everything from initial stock removal to straightening long edges. Follow up with a smoothing plane to take fine shavings for a glass-smooth surface that often needs no sanding. For trimming end grain, a low angle block plane is indispensable.
For creating precise joints, specialised planes are invaluable. Rabbet planes cut accurate rebates for cabinet backs, while plow planes create grooves for drawer bottoms and frame panels. For cleaning up dados and hinge gains, router & mortice planes offer superior depth control.
Choosing the Right Hand Planer
The ideal hand planer depends on the timber you work with and the finish you need. When working with difficult grain or hard Australian timbers, a low-angle plane or one with an adjustable mouth helps minimise tear-out. The length of the plane is also important; longer soles are best for flattening surfaces, while shorter soles can follow curves and smooth specific areas. Blade material is another consideration. We offer irons in various steels, including options that hold a sharp edge longer, reducing time spent sharpening.
Building Your Hand Tool Kit
A hand plane is only as effective as its blade. A reliable sharpening system is crucial for keeping your irons razor-sharp. Pair your planes with accurate layout tools to mark your cuts clearly before making shavings. Building a complete hand tools kit allows you to approach any task with confidence, from simple chamfers to complex joinery.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a hand plane used for?
A hand plane is used to flatten, smooth, and shape wood. It shaves off thin layers of timber to reduce thickness, straighten an edge, or create a polished surface with greater precision than sanding.
What is the difference between a wooden and a metal hand plane?
Metal hand planes are known for their durability, stability, and ease of adjustment. A wooden hand plane is lighter, glides easily over timber due to lower friction, and provides different tactile feedback.
How do I choose the right hand plane?
For a versatile starting point, consider a block plane for general trimming and a #4 or #5 bench plane for surface preparation. For specific joinery tasks, choose specialised tools like rabbet or plow planes based on the joints you need to cut.
How often should a plane blade be sharpened?
Sharpen your blade when you feel increased resistance or notice a decline in the surface quality. Regular honing on a strop or fine stone will maintain a keen edge and prolong the time between full sharpening sessions.
