Something that I haven't been able to wrap my mind around is how the angle of the grind effects the shape of the profile when it's actually in the plane... the context being making my own profiles.
@WoodByWrightHowTo2 жыл бұрын
the angle does not matter as it is bevel down. as long as it is less then the bed angle.

A simple softening of the corner is my preferred corner on smaller simple projects where as for larger projects a 45 degree is my preference especially on overhanging edges. Sharp corners, in my experience, can tend to splinter along the grain and the splinters will either ruin a shirt or slide under a fingernail plus damage the look of the piece, no-one wants a wedge missing from a piece they've spent a lot of time on.

Damn, now I got an urge to make a moulding plane cutter cutting jig for my rotating multitool and I already have too many things on my have-to-do, kind-of-should-do, and neat-to-do lists. The overall idea is a small vice in a container for water and the multitool held in a 2:1 or 3:1 panthograp for more accurate control.

Sounds like you need a roundtoit. Assign each one to a specific project or issue and when someone, such as your own self, questions why it is not done you can just point to it - AKA pointtoit - and get back to whatever the hell you were doing before you were so rudely interrupted. Ah, life's simple.

Have you ever used a cornering tool? They are similar to combo wrenches in that they can come in sets and have cutters on both ends that are different sizes. Very simple tool but makes a much more repeatable corner shape than a block plane does. They are just for breaking the corners, no fancy shapes or chamfer, but the are fast if that's all you want to do.

those are great for edging and faced woods, I have not found them all that useful for solid woods.

In the past my misadventures with hand tools resulted in among other injuries, a torn thumbnail while trying to use a handsaw. I prefer using power tools because of those experiences. But strangely enough, since subscribing to, and watching your videos I am willing to try hand tools again. Mainly a small manageable hand plane, now that I know that they need to be sharpened properly before the first use. By the way, how do those specialty planes work with really hard hardwoods? I'm very curious about how they would cope with the local woods here in Guyana (purpleheart is one of our local woods).
@WoodByWrightHowTo2 жыл бұрын
with really hard woods they work well. you just have to sharpen more often. you also want to take a slightly thinner shaving.

an ogee is a reversing curve. one portion is convex and one is concave. The corner I cut with the 55 is a traditional ogee. a roman ogee has a rabbet to start it into the first curve. www.google.com/search?q=roman+ogee&rlz=1C1ASVA_enUS826US826&oq=Roman+ogee&aqs=chrome.0.0i512l10.784j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

The approaches you've shared all work well while working on the long grain of the wood. I've never had a lot of success with hand cut moldings on the edge grain, however, except for chambers and roundcovers with the block or smoothing plane. Any suggestions?
