Wooden planes have been a staple in woodworking for centuries and are still highly valued for their craftsmanship and effectiveness. This course covers a variety of key aspects related to plane making, including: Designing and making different types of planes including a smoothing/block plane, shoulder plane, spokeshave and convex sole plane. Thiago will walk students through the entire process from selecting the right materials to design, cutting, gluing, shaping, finishing, and set up and use of the finished plane. After the planes are constructed, sharpening techniques will be covered to ensure they are effective and efficient. One of the best aspects of this course is that you can make a plane with minimal tools and Thiago shows how do it using only hand tools. The project can be completed in a relatively short time, making it a fun and satisfying experience for woodworkers of any skill level. This course is a fantastic way to learn the craft of traditional woodworking and add practical tools to your shop. Since making just one plane can become addictive, you’ll likely end up with a set of custom, handcrafted planes perfect for different tasks.
