A Beginners Guide to Bench Planes (Don's Hand Plane Informational Series)

You've Just Bought a Bench Plane. Congratulations. You have made an excellent investment in your woodworking future. If it's brand new, you will be the first to build its history. If it's one from an earlier time, you have helped to preserve its woodworking past and now become part of it. Either way, your money was well spent but it's an even wiser investment to keep it well maintained so it will be serviceable for generations to come. This brief 24 page guide will help you do just that. It's not necessarily the "end all" bible of plane maintenance and use but it will get you started and help you develop your skills. Over time, you will undoubtedly discover your own process and procedures to get the job done. The authors have developed their own ways of doing things and you may find them useful, others perhaps not so much. But whatever process you do end up with, be consistent using it. Developing your skills as a woodworker include developing your skills in tool maintenance. If you take care of your plane, it will take care of your needs in the shop.
