Looking for inexpensive plane for shelves, tabletops and some other jointed surfaces.","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"I think it is. Others might not like it but I do. It does not have a chip breaker, which is something that is very helpful when dealing with certain types of woods and grain patterns. It struggles with those. I've used it, and was careful, and it does pretty well on pine and \"whitewood\" (whatever that is). Occasional problems with tear out but just planed in the opposite direction in those spots. When I started using it, I was struggling to get the edge on the iron squared off. The two adjustment nuts made it easy to adjust for the off square edge. Even if/when you graduate to other planes, it makes a good scrub plane. Sharpen and hone a cambered edge on the iron and you can take off a lot of material in a hurry.As far as doing jointing, again, not the best plane for that but take your time, use straight edges and squares to check progress frequently and you can accomplish what you want to do. If you look at jointer planes you'll see prices 6 - 8 times what this plane will cost.All in all, I'd call it a good buy for the money. Probably not a plane you'd want to use for everything but you can get the job done if you take your time. It is handy to have."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Just looking for something to trim doors to close properly. Will I need to prepare it first or can I just use it as is?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Mine worked out of the box. All I did was set the iron depth. I use it about every other day on mostly pine and red oak. Three months later and I haven't sharpened it yet. \n\nI've been woodworking for over 30 years and using hand planes almost from day one. On my bench, I have a vintage bailey pattern type number 4 set as a smoothing plane and this sits next to it as an all purpose bench plane. \n\nWith S4S lumber, you rarely need a scrub plane - just something for flattening - getting material tried and true. This fits the bill straight out of the box."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can this work to help flatten out warped/twisted [reclaimed] wood planks?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. However, I suggest a plane with a Bailey style adjuster rather this plane. The two thumbscrews that control depth of cut are finicky. I would probably steer you toward a Stanley No. 5 with a longer sole. As with any reclaimed wood project; make sure your work is clear of nails and other embedded metal."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"This plane has \"plastic\" handles, not \"resin\", correct? I only want it for a cheap set of non-resin/non-wood handles..","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"It has a resin handle. It is highly recommended that you get a machine shop to re machine bottom of the plane. And also if you are not familiar with how to correctly sharpen the blades have somebody do it who is."}}]}]}
