I was excited to learner the origin of the word fillister. My only guess is a window maker once delivered some sashes to a customer and he asked, “what do I do with the gap between the glass and the moulding?” The sash-maker said, “You fill it sir.”

That would be cool!

Excellent video, I love my sash plane and have made several windows. Mostly for the challenge, but I live in a historic district and made a replacement window for a neighbor. I said "I can make that" and bought the book on door and window making and a couple of sash planes. Boy did I have a lot to learn. I had so much fun I went to the Wood Wright school with Roy Underhill to relearn what I just did. I am amazed that with joinery alone a window is so strong.

Very interesting...but now I'm curious about the origins of the word "fillister." I'm not clear - is the second plane a standing fillister plane or a moving fillister? If the latter, what IS a standing fillister? Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Sorry for the confusion; a 'moving' fillister is one whose depth and width guides are adjustable.

Great video which has enabled me to finally work out how to use my sash plane properly. Unfortunately a complex moulding plane is now giving me problems despite working well before I sharpened the iron. I notice that my plane, like all the others I have seen pictures of, has a wedge for the long part of the iron and what appears to be a space for a wedge over the wider part of the iron but no wedge. Should there be a wedge for this part or is there some other reason for the gap.

Sounds like the wedge has become shortened. It should fit, tapered and poined, so as not to impede any shavings, almost to the tip of the iron.

@@gjbmunc I think we may be at cross purposes. The plane has a wedge for the iron enclosed in the body of the plane but also has a cut-out on one side of the body leading to the wide end of the iron. Should this also have a wedge i.e is it supposed to have two wedges?
