Making a Wooden Block Plane from Firewood

A while ago I bought this plane blade on a Fleamarket. Now I took some time to make a Block plane body to use it. I used a piece of Beech firewood which has dried for more than 2 years. The blade sits bevel up in the body on a 20-degree slope. For a finish, I applied some home made Linseed oil-Beeswax mixture.
Thank you very much for watching!

I almost turned this video off when I saw the power saws come out. That was until I noticed you replaced the noise pollution with music. That got my sub. Cool vid. Cool plane.

Super. Einfach und unkompliziert gebaut. Wenn ich mir da andere Videos vom Bau eines Hobels ansehe, wundere ich mich echt wie kompliziert manche das bauen. Ich finde deine Kontruktion super durchdacht und ausgeführt und ich hoffe von dir kommen noch viele tolle Videos. Bin ein großer Fan von dir. Mach weiter so.

[@Ollaris]

Vielen Dank!

[@deankay4434]

I loved the plywood hacksaw. Mine doesn’t make music but it’s metal. Really enjoy going to the scrap drawer, then the firewood pile. Must be oak. Great little plane and the music it makes.

[@Ollaris]

Thank you very much! It’s beech.

[@deankay4434]

@@Ollaris How does the sound go higher when you turn the wing nut to loosen it? Ha, Ha. One of the best sound effect ever on youtube! Love it and expect to hear a chain saw at the band saw, weed eater at the drill press next. Man, too good! 3 thumbs up... my two and the neighbor who borrowed my saws-all. I keep it a jar and will tell him someday. Maybe Christmas in box.

[@Ollaris]

Hahahahaha!
