It's my pleasure

Thank you for explaining the differences between the planes and the reasoning for these differences. It adds to everyone's knowledge base and expands the craft. Cheers

Glad you enjoyed it!

If I wanted to free-hand a hollow in the middle of a board, I'd start by plowing a shallow groove, using a fenced plow plane or combination plane. The round would be better able to follow that trench than a simple pencil line.

Hoping you eventually talk about holding at 45 and to always ride two points when making rounds. Chamfer first with rabbet plane to create two points of contact before taking the hollow to it. Same for how a round sits in a rabbet with two points of contact. Just making a template for mounding is the key that unlocked mountings to me. Seeing the crossed lines making a grid on a template piece. Absolutely love when a hollow and round come together and you’re ogee is perfectly smooth and even transition. A very satisfying shape and still surprises me.

Bonjour et merci 😀. Je suis français et je ne rate aucun épisode de votre chaîne merveilleuse et instructive. Comme vous, je collectionne les rabots et ma chaîne de débutant traite en partie de restauration de ces rabots à moulures. J’apprends à m’en servir grâce à votre enseignement de grand maître du rabot et du copeau et je vous remercie pour la propagation de votre savoir. À bientôt pour d’autres épisodes.👋

I have a round that is almost as round from end to end of the sole as it is side to side . I have never seen one like it so snatched it up.

Hello Mr. Blackburn, This past weekend I found a #8 hollow and round pair molding plane. Makers stamp appears to be Copland & Co. Both these planes have chipbreakers. I found that very unusual for a molding plane. Thanks.

Thanks Graham - Great Video as usual. Im going to my first hand tool market later this month, so ill be excited to look out for some planes, and a bit'n'brace. Only issue we have here, is that generally people know what they have, so nothing is a bargain.... Often, ill see standard metal planes which need full restorations ask for more than the new Lee Neilsen version....

Why do many Hollows have a tapered side. The tip about using the vice to remove the wedge is a very good tip. I was smacking the daylights out of my moulding planes. Is there a down side to using the Charleworth ruler trick for flattening the back of these blades where applicable?

@gjbmunc

8 ай бұрын

The tapered side allows for a thinner hollow otherwise the stock would not be stout enough to hold the iron. The Charlesworth trick works, just not my favorite.

I just read about the rounds and hollows in vol. 2 of your brilliant books! I've been thinking about making a couple of these, well, one of each. Anything particular to keep in mind? Would any particular size be a good first choice? Thank you for yet another great video!

Good morning, Mr. Blackburn. Two days ago I purchased a lot of 4 planes very cheaply. Three of them are OK; but the fourth one, a beading plane, is warped. I would like to restore it like the other ones, but I don't know if it is possible. Any suggestions? Thank you.

@gjbmunc

If the stock is warped there's not much you can do - except use it for a curved edge! Someone on ebay might want it.

I own and appreciate all wooden molding planes so long as the wood grain isn’t too problematic. Otherwise, I’ll take out a power router and forgo the Old Tymey look!
