Thanks for this detailed reply!
A question that might sound silly… would it be a problem if I open the oven while I am in the middle of the process? someone wants to bake a chicken while I’m using the oven to be saving. just wondering if a change in temperature might be bad.10 April 2018 at 10:29 am #521320oh boy 1/8th that’s a ton, the cutter is super hard so it’s already hard to even polish on the diamond stones and the file just skids
I think these are the original record 044 cutters they have the markings and came with the plane so the steel should be good right? unless the previous owner tried to harden the blades? I have heard of some people doing this with plow plane cutters

9 April 2018 at 12:42 pm #520788Even though I have not found a router plane due to the insane prices I Have found that I absolutely LOVE the poor mans router especially because I can have several at the same time at different depths for the price of a chisel, I have added a little wedge on top that makes all the difference in the world to me as far as keeping it tight, the way it works for me is to put in the blade loose to depth or a mil before depth and then tighten the wedge and tap either back or forward for the exact depth which is the tricky part but you start getting used to the sounds of tapping fast

I’m not sure if what was getting on my Saw was sap or resin, the pine wood has been drying for years so I don’t know if that could be sap, so I don’t know if that would make a difference on the cleaning process, I don’t think it would hurt to try hot water though 🙂 (and make sure to dry and oil the tool after)
1 March 2018 at 6:13 pm #487732Hot water and a rag works pretty good!!
I ran into this problem today after ripping a particularly sappy pine board, my handsaw got real clogged up and I wasn’t being able to remove the goop with a rag and 3in1 oil that is what I usually clean my saw with, so I tried a couple ideas from the internet.. kitchen oil: doesn’t work, alcohol: kinda works but leaves your saw looking nasty! last I tried hot water just from the tap and it worked like a charm you gotta get in there a little with your rag but it was just great! all the sap came off real fast and didn’t have to use any chemicals, then again the sap wasn’t dry, I don’t know if it would work on really dry stuff.. -
