Just re-watched that video, Colin, and at one point it is mentioned that the plane iron can wear down over many years of use. I wonder if that is the issue I have here – the plane iron wore down over decades of sharpening and that is why it does not extend beyond the wooden wedge. Is that possible? (as I beginner, this is all a puzzle to me).
Hi Colin –
Thanks very much for your reply and the link. In fact it was the Mortise & Tenon magazine piece that got me interested in buying a wooden fore plane.
Yes, it has a chip breaker, in good condition. And it all fits together snugly. I just can’t for the life of me figure out why the wooden wedge extends beyond the cutting iron … baffles me.
