023 Toothing plane with intermittent boxing. Woodworking

[@StavrosGakos]

I build that plane in march 2019. Some time ago i decided to change the blade because first one was worn out and refused to work. All the grooves on the blade was very shallow and unfortunately my sharpening wasn't correct.. That's why i reupload the video withs some changes. Ok, so how to make that kind of blade sharp? All you need to do is use bench grinder to make new bevel (remember about cooling) with little burr on the back. You should feel it under your fingers. Next and also the last step is stick cutting edge of the blade to some hardwoods end grain. It will remove the burr. After that the blade is ready to work. Materials: Beech wood Boxwood wood Some hardwood veneer Hide glue Boiled linseed oil Shellac orange. If you have any questions or sugestions just write a comment. Enjoy!

We are literally watching a person developing master level skills here. Stunning and impressive. Totally blown away man. Loving watching your videos.

[@professor62]

Stavros, watching this build was pure pleasure. You are a craftsman and artist of the highest order, and we are most fortunate to be able to watch you work.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot Russ!

[@GregorKropotkin-qu2hp]

This has become one of my favourite channels and in a few months when I get my workshop, I shall make some of these planes for myself. Really Outstanding craftsmanship Mr Gakos, i congratulate you!

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you Gregor :)

[@davidneale-lorello2954]

I think of you less as a toolmaker and more as a sculptor whose medium is planes. Exquisite work.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you

[@leemarzahl8891]

Very cool build!

[@neoanderson5027]

You have a good eye for angles, curves and chamfers. Look great.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot!

In 2006-7 I built a joining plain from paduke and maccasor ebony. The woods came from dunnage and a pallet respectively. I took it to a tool collectors club where there was an old British cabinet maker who accused me of using power tools in its construction. He refused to believe that an American could build such a tool entirely by hand. I use scraper chisels like you do to float the blade bedding. Excellent work. Greetings from the high plains of Texas.

Awesome history, can i see it enywhere? Thank you Ryan :)

if i can wish for a superpower , i would wish for a talent like yours i really love your work , in a world where every thing is replaced with power tools it's very pleasing to know that there is still some surviving arts

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot! I appereciate it :)

Premium craftsman! I am always waiting for your new videos. Thank you

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot August, i appereciate it :)

[@fabriziogamba4964]

Bravo stavros

[@allenwc]

Ha! I've not seen that method of removing burrs! Always something new! I get a lot of Douglas Fir here with just crazy grain, changing every cm. I need more planes now :P I have on my list to build a scraper plane, right after I finish my current project. I'll have to add the toothing plane to the list, that will definitely solve a lot of problems. Once again, Thanks kindly!

[@StavrosGakos]

You're welcome William :) Regards!

[@dalejones4186]

Wish I had your patience. I would try to make one of your planes. Great job.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot Dale! Why only one? ;)

[@chaosreigns7386]

Beautifully done coffin shape... Love what you did with the pattern

Stavros, are you and your family well? Please let your friends know how we can help you during this ugly war between Russia and Europe. My Parish has been praying for you and your family. Please make more videos when you can. Bill from Minnesota, USA

[@StavrosGakos]

Hey Bill! We are good, thank you. Some crazy people really whant it, but Europe is not a side in this conflict, please don't trust in everything from mass-media from both sides. Cheers!

[@sammisworkshops3762]

do you ever make and/or sell a plan or drawing for any of the planes, I enjoy watching them being made and would like to try making on some time. Thanks! yours always look soo good!

[@StavrosGakos]

No, sorry - almost all my plans i got in my head

I just got a coffin smoother. I don't know if I can save the body yet. Your videos will help if I have to make a new body for it. Thanks

[@StavrosGakos]

Make video about it :) Regards!

[@sebuteo]

Always love watching your videos Stavros. I really like the 'no talking' approach, as well. Very peaceful! I'm also intrigued by all the different types of plane you build. Is there a book or website you'd recommend to someone looking to learn about basic types of planes (of the type you make)?

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you Sebastian! There is no one source about hand planes, but if you want to learn basic types check here www.planemaker.com/products.html

[@sebuteo]

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.

[@BBruno185]

Nice video, thank you.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot Bruno!

[@VORONM]

It is the next masterpiece! I don 't stop being surprised by your skill. Please tell me. At what angle do you sharpen your chisels?

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks :) About standard 25 deg.

[@scottgates601]

Awesome work! Any info on the name stamps ? Thanks

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot! They were made by Mirock Woodshop. Regards

[@stefanocapacci]

Excuse me Stavros, what kind of glue do you use? lapin glue?

[@StavrosGakos]

It was hide glue. Regards

[@stefanocapacci]

@@StavrosGakos thank you!

[@grougier9548]

Excellent, as usual! Could it be that the blade was not working because the angle was so low (70 degrees).. most old toothing planes are above 80 and some go past 90 degrees). Also tooth size varies widely between planes, but in general blades with small teeth were intended for veneer preparation, while those with larger teeth fro figured lumber prep. The veneer toothing planes are steeper, ho the teeth will engage, the lower angle ones (still above 80 dgr) can have larger teeth. I'm interested in your take on the theory correlating tooth size and angle. All the best.. admiring your work!

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks! The bed angle was copied from other plane, with new blade it works fine. I don't have more experience with different angles. Cheers

[@grougier9548]

Thanks for answering you are an inspiration for many of us weekend wood choppers! All the best!

[@gustavoandreschibaack7663]

Im not sure if the blade needs shapes

[@markgoddard2560]

Craftsman. (If you stand at 45 degrees to the horizontal, lateral and vertical while using the hand brace, you will not have to stop and check you are following the right course. You will see it).

[@StavrosGakos]

I check every time :) regards

[@cdbflynow]

Very impressive work and a well crafted video as well. What was your motivation for making the two-wood sole. It is visually attractive, but I suspect you were going after a more wear resistant sole. Paul

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you! It is classic solution to take care of the sole durability :)

[@enriquin58]

Eres un genio!!!💯👏👏👏

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot!

[@darylwilde8861]

Truly amazing to watch! Have you thought of including drawings or maybe selling them?

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks! I'm still thinking about making them for sale, but at this moment i don't have a time for it. Usually i don't use drawings so i don't have any one, but my head is full of them ;) Regards!

[@LimitedGunnerGM]

I’m curious if you keep track of the hours it takes you to make these tools?

[@StavrosGakos]

It's impossible to count only time of work during video making so i don't care. The main rule is no rush :) Regards!

[@ОлегНазаров-с6д]

Great! Can you make router plane?

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks! I made one.

What kind of glue are you using?

[@sethbracken]

John Crable hide glue

[@StavrosGakos]

Yes, it's hide glue

[@boiseuxdebutant7746]

Hello, another nice video, I who am passionate about old carpenter's tools I watch your videos with envy. What kind of wood do you use to make your planers? See you soon

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks, i use mainly beech

[@chrisherald2338]

Is that hide glue for the inlays on the bottom? Is that the preferred glue so they can be replaced if necessary? I love your videos.

[@StavrosGakos]

Yes Chris, i see you know exactly what it is and what is for ;) thanks a lot!

[@SeahawkSailor]

Excellent work! I had never seen inserts like that, and had to go research the purpose. Is the dark veneer wrapping normal, or is that an artistic addition? Very nice!

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you, an artistic addition :)

[@oneshotme]

Once again you've made a beautiful tool!! Great job making it.I didn't see it the first time :) Sowhythe two different kind of wood on the bottom?? Is it for a reason or just for looks?? Enjoyed your video and gave it a Thumbs Up

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot! That boxing makes the sole more durable for friction Regards!
