I have the LN #4 and it is a very nice plane. However, I also own a Bailey #4 and I prefer it to the LN. It is lighter making me less tired. I prefer the softer blade on the Bailey for fast, easy sharpening.

That machine is a disaster. Its hard to believe they can make something that bad.

Enjoy the nice clear video. All videos should be like this. Where is it made? China or Taiwan?

I prefer Veritas , it is cheaper than Lie Nielsen and are of the same quality and usually with better modern upgrades. For instance, set screws on the sides.

I’m in the market for a jointer / planer combo and saw your review of the Hammer A3 31. I wanted to ask if there was a specific reason you purchased a new jointer and planer?

Thanks, that was very helpful. I got it today and was struggling...

Did I miss the table extensions somewhere ? Nice table .

To lower for everyone

I have a WR 5 1/2 and like it a lot. One thing I did was to upgrade the blade and chip breaker to the LN and am extremely pleased with the LN cryo blade. It takes a beautiful shaving and stays sharp quite a bit longer than the WR blade.

Lovely space! If I was a wee bit closer geographically I would pick up that Hammer machine today.

Long time! Welcome back!

THANKS FOR THE VIDEO, WELCOME BACK.

Dude, bring back the shadow boxing! That's the only thing missing, other than that it looks like you got your stuff together.

Cheer~~~a flat surface on which a straight line joining any two points on it would wholly lie.😊

Why make a jig and still cut most out manually? Get a bearing bit with plunge router and be done with it.

Lie nelson is just for rich yuppies

Nice name!

Enclosed inside a plastic bag. That says all you need to know about Rob Cosman's Chinese junk.

Ah. Comparing Rob Cosman's Chinese junk to Lie Neilsen.

Can you comment on the dust collection for each operation?

I have chopped a mortise or two but I don’t have router so I rely on some bits and good chisels.

These are not my two first planes. But I am planning to get them.

Just finished honing the iron on a Stanley No. 4, its okay but I want a LN. I have multiples of 3,4,5,6,7,8 and made a nice till for them. My next shop project is a nice tool cabinet so I plan on thinning the heard. I think I will sell all and get a LN 4 1/2, 5 1/2 and a 7. I never use the 3, 5, 6 and 8 Stanleys anyway. Thank you for the review!

Excellent video. You are very thorough and concise. I used a moritser and was looking for a good way to show off through-tenons. This is it.

Gotta love hand tool videos where the first step is a table saw

All this time later, im getting a bit better organised so thank you

One is made in China and one is not.

Table saw- where is your blade guard?

Bravo 👏

Just purchased and assembled the P-Flux2. It stands about 6-7ft. lt has way more capability than I need, but I wanted the HEPA filtration, sound enclosure, and 220v @ 13A. The written instructions are not that great, so I primarily referred to Laguna’s KZbin video-that guy does an outstanding job clearly and calmly explaining every step. For example, the written instructions start by indicating that you need a fork lift to lift the main body of the unit onto the stand assembly. What? I don’t have a stinking fork lift!!! Instead, the Laguna video shows assembling the unit on its side, then tipping upright with 2-3 individuals. Caution-it is very heavy-but I was able to get the unit upright very safely with the help of 3 friends.

"I can't wait to use them for the rest of my life" thats the best quote I've found on a wood working channel. Beautiful work. Thank you for sharing

It’s hard to believe that fence doesn’t cause inaccuracy. Using the in/out method would negate these inaccuracies, but they would still be a problem if jointing a single piece that one wanted to be square.

I can only find the wood river for $200 or more so I think I'm mote likely to buy the lie neisen at this time.

WR has low quality blade. better to replace it with a third party one. WR sells around 100 bucks in my country, and LN is around 500 or so. If I could buy LN at 300, i will definitely do.

Combo machines only advantage is shipping and space saving but all who buy them complain about them often during production you notice lots of limitations and challenges, i prefer to go one by one.

Comparing anything to Lie Nielsen is always an unfair comparison! They could produce literal crap and it would sell! Lol!

Have left two voice mail messages with no response. I want to find out what classes are available in the class room vs online. The web site is challenging when it comes to finding in class bs online. I live in Bluffton and would like to learn more!

you assembled a screwddriver .... you didnt makre the tips

Ah I love this right to the point and easy. Hit a broke of nail I didn't know was there with my wood plane blade took a good sized piece out did this took a little while because of the extent of the damage but it works next all I have to do is sharpen it. I just prefer doing it by hand rather than using a machine

I totally agree, but you do need to be wealthy.

Nice idea's to think over for me. My bench isn't a carpenters bench and hasn't a fixed vise. So I need a way to clamp the jigs, byou gave me nice ideas

How to buy this kind of machine

Finger my butt.

Miss you. Been awhile. Still come across your videos now and then.

how to cut tenon on curved

lovely simple video. thank you

Nice .where did you get the screwdriver shafts?

Many years ago, when I didn't know much about hand planes, I purchased a Clifton no. 5 plane. It was advertised as being ready out of the box, and this was true. Since then I now have more than a dozen hand planes, all are original Stanley-Baileys. I have learned how to refurbish them, some now have Hock blades. This is a viable alternate to both saving money and having a proven quality tool as well. Along the way you will learn all you need to know about hand planes.

super sized jointer, super undersized planer. A lot to only get 1/2 of what you need, unless small boards is good for you.
