New Planes
Christmas brought some new planes. Wooden ones from Rutlands. The Jointer plane blade doesn't sit quite right. One side of the blade is lower than the other and no amount of pushing the top of the blade left or right will fix it. I suspect that the throat is not square with the base of the plane.
Since the plane is made of wood, a few minutes with a file should fix that.
The blades will need a little work to sharpen them up, a sheet of glass and some carbide paper is your only man for the job : ScarySharp.
Yep. I know that I opened them early, but that's a traddition in this house that goes back hours.
