    This document discusses different types of planes used in woodworking. It describes smoothing planes, jack planes, and block planes. Smoothing planes are used for finish work, jack planes for general smoothing, and block planes for end grain. It provides details on parts of a plane like the mouth, blade, lever cap, depth adjustment knob, and frog. Spokeshaves are used for curved work. Electric hand planes have a revolving high speed blade but may not provide as smooth a finish as hand planes.

    PLANES

    SOME TYPES OF PLANES


     A carpenter's hand tool with an adjustable
    blade for smoothing or shaping wood; "the
    cabinetmaker used a plane for the finish work
     Common types used are:-
    The Smoothing plane,
    The Jack plane,
    The Block plane.
     For curve work Spokeshaves

     Also you can have a Electric Hand Plane


    THE SMOOTHING
    PLANE

     Is typically 8 to 10 inches long, has a tight


    mouth and is held with both hands.
     The iron of the smoothing plane is generally
    sharpened straight across or with a slightly
    arched cutting edge
    THE PLANE exploded view

     The depth of cut is set by turning the Depth


    adjustment knob found behind the blade, try for fine
    thin shavings, making several light cuts
    THE PLANE
    other parts named

     A: The Mouth is an opening in the bottom of the plane down through


    which the blade extends, and up through which wood shavings pass.
     B: The Blade or Iron is steel with a sharpened edge which cuts the
    wood.
     C: The Lever cap holds the blade down firmly to the body of the plane.
     D: The Depth adjustment knob controls how far the blade extends
    through the mouth.
     F: The Cap iron makes the blade more rigid.
     J: The Frog is a sliding iron wedge that holds the plane Iron at the
    proper angle. It slides to adjust the gap between the cutting edge and the
    front of the mouth. The frog is screwed down to the inside of the sole
    through two parallel slots and on many planes is only adjustable with a
    screwdriver when the plane iron is removed
    JACK PLANE
     Is the general-purpose bench plane, used for
    general smoothing of the edges and sizing of
    wood. Jack planes are about 15 inches long,
    and the blade usually has a moderately
    curved edge. In preparing wood, the jack
    plane is used before the smoothing plane.
     The name is related to the saying "jack of all
    trades". Jack planes perform both the work of
    smoothing planes and trying planes
    Block plane
    A block plane is a small woodworking hand
    plane which typically has the iron bedded at a
    lower angle than other planes, with the bevel
    up. It is designed to cut end grain and is
    typically small enough to be used with one
    hand.
    SPOKESHAVE
     These handy tools come with either straight,
    convex, or concave blades, they are an
    excellent tool for hand shaping material.

    CONVEX CONCAVE
    ELECTRIC HAND PLANE
     A blade revolves at high speed
    and as the machine plane is
    pushed across the surface of
    the wood - it is planed.
     A big disadvantage of these
    planes is that they are
    potentially very dangerous if
    misused. Also, sometimes the
    finish to the surface is not as
    smooth or precise as a hand
    held plane being carefully
    used.
    THE PLANE

    of parts

    A. The Lever cap holds the blade down firmly to the


    body of the plane
    B. The Blade is a plate of steel with a sharpened
    edge which cuts the wood.
    C. The Cap iron makes the blade more rigid
