You should pin this comment, Stavros. 🙂 Awesome video.

[@bradleyleben7785]

I’ve been watching your videos from the beginning, I never find them boring. I remember when the only thing you used electric while making your planes was the light. It’s knowledge that makes them weather by hand tools or power tools. You are a true artistan .

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you Bradley 🍻

[@brucepottorff6870]

OK Stavros. You may take your place among the finest traditional plane makers working today. That beautiful plane made effortless work of the end grain pear. I own some great planes and can put a keen edge on their blades, but none could do that. I'm in awe.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you Bruce 🍻

[@stepjerot3869]

Stavros, thank you for sharing this amazing piece of craftmanship

[@ronboe6325]

I'm pretty sure you could take a small log with the bark still on it, flatten one side, mortice a hole for the blade and make shavings like you do in all your videos. Looks like you are enjoying your mill too. :^)

[@DickvanZanten]

Hello Stavros, I too have been following your youtubes from the beginning and enjoy every video you make. I love seeing your shop grow over time and getting more tooling. Luckily the product keeps the incredibly high quality that is one of your hallmarks, whether made completely by hand or with mechanical tools makes no difference. Keep it up my friend!

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot! Cheers 🍻

[@Vincent-S]

The shot of you mortising out the plane body with your hand crank drill press in the background really sells the progress you’ve made lol

[@StavrosGakos]

😉

[@stanmoderate4460]

I find the combination of the machine and handwork just as fascinating to watch as the pure handwork. I put that down to your videography skills. A beautiful piece.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you Stan!

[@dawdawsd1]

Result is wonderful, but I really liked your older videos with hand tools better

[@marchornig670]

Once again a real beauty, the planer. And what a huge monster iron. It's amazing what machines you have. My next project will also be another planer. I'm really looking forward to it. Greetings Marc

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks Marc! Cheers!

[@rickdoby7361]

I love your work. Keep at it! I really like to see you using new equipment to make your planes and going back to your hand skills for the finishing touches! It shows just how much you have learned about your craft over the years.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you Rick 🍻

[@LukaszKNowicki]

Widać postęp w obróbce maszynowej, dużo pracy ale i efekty są! Gratuluje i z przyjemnością obejrzę kolejne filmy.

[@chapinqanjobal]

I MADE A SET OF 3 LIKE THAT WHEN I WAS 12, . NO FANCY TOOLS I HAVE NOTHING, JUST A HUMMER AND A BIG NAIL AS A CHESEL. IT WORK OUT GREAT AT LEAST TO ME. LOVELY DAY TO YOU AND YOURS 🌹❤️🌹🇲🇽🇬🇹🇷🇺🇭🇳🇸🇻🇳🇮

[@jackdelancey248]

I do admire the perfection, both in the hand and machinery skills.

Super, pozdrawiam!

[@grantwilliams630]

I imagine that mill is going to really improve your efficiency

[@oneshotme]

beautiful plan and beautiful work as always!!!!! You've come a long ways since I first started watching you with just hand tools!! Very glad you were able to upgrade your shop!! I very much enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up

[@StavrosGakos]

Thank you my friend!

[@snellscroft]

Very interesting to see another way of doing things with just as much skill and a beautiful product, looking forward to your next video.

[@christopherreiss1320]

Another awesome project! I always love watching your work. I hope this is okay to ask here, but how would someone go about purchasing one of your planes? One day id love to look up and see Stavros Gakos stamped into a tool in my shop. Do i need to join a patreon or something similar?

[@StavrosGakos]

[@tyremanguitars]

nice work! I can appreciate the machining as well as hand tool skills, it's good to see you now combine both, best of both worlds in my opinion because you can make more planes without sacrificing on the quality.

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks a lot mate!

[@jamesthompson7825]

I always enjoy your videos and appreciate your showing a variety of methods of making your planes. Was the shot of the cup of coffee a shout out to Shurap from the Ukraine, who always makes a cup of tea while his knife blades are in heat treat?

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks! It wasn't any shoutout :) Cheers!

Hmm, fingers click not working for me to make this hollow blade grind :-( probably I need the right tone :-) Every time I learn something from you. Thank you!

[@StavrosGakos]

Right tone is needed for sure ;) Cheers!

[@WesW3187]

Can I ask why the chamfers that run vertically down the front and back of the plane end so unusually? They look kind of unfinished. I know you left them like that for a reason. Wonderful craftsmanship. I’ve subscribed.

[@StavrosGakos]

Hey, thanks! That's the classic way to make the chamfers, it's more than 200 years old.

[@dagwood1327]

As always such a beautiful piece.

[@plainnpretty]

Beautiful plane Thanks for sharing it

[@davewest6788]

Very well done, as usual. When laying out the angles for the openings do you take the grain direction of the blank into consideration or does the body get finished at a high enough grit that grain direction doesn't matter?

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks! Bark side of the blank is always at the bottom, the grains should be as striaight as it possibile so it doesn't matter.

[@awldune]

Note to self -- throw away the wood in my shop and buy beech

[@boleonv]

Are you planning to make metal planes with this milling machine and your great hands?

[@StavrosGakos]

Hey! Yes, that's the plan but first i need to prepare another room for metal workshop 🤟

[@phooesnax]

Great work. Thank You!

[@pmewUK]

Beautiful work as always. Simply stunning. A wee question though, I completely appreciate that your workshop arrangements bring further precision and speed to your work - but do you miss doing it all by hand?

[@StavrosGakos]

Thanks Paul! I can do all by hand like earlier but for that reason nobody will pay for the plane 2-3 times more. My day is not made out of rubber ;) Cheers!

[@ricos1497]

@@StavrosGakos A useful reply, thanks! I wondered how much time it would actually save on an individual plane? It looks like there a significant setup of the milling machine at each stage of the process. I'm assuming that you actually mill several planes at once, that we don't see in the videos? If each plane was a single production piece that you don't repeat, would milling still save you a lot of time? Just curious. Edit: a stunning final product and beautiful filming as always.

Спасибо, поляк! Всё красиво.

[@jackwatchesvideos]

A very inspiring video I would love to have a go at making one of these planes is it possible to buy a drawing? What make/model are the milling cutters and fly cutter? Great video

[@StavrosGakos]

Hey, i made it without any drawings, the most important are the angles, you can see them at the begining of the video. Make your drawing if you need it 👍 Vhm end mills, Chinesse surface planing bit and selfmade fly cutting head with irons. Cheers!
