Mark you were correct the sole was not flat i had rubbed in on a bit of sandpaper but had not checked it, there was a hollow in the sole around the mouth. I planed it flat and it was much improved. I could plane the edge of a test piece producing full width shavings about .003″ thick, perhaps it was with a £1 after all. It was not good trying to plane the face or end grain of a test piece.
It is nay quite small and I think it would be nice to just use one handed for breaking edges.
Greg I had looked to see if the blade was making good contact and it looked like it was, I will try your suggested pencil trick at the weekend
Thanks for your suggestions
