hi, this is jon on behalf of expert village.in this video clip i'll be answering question what is a block plane. the block plane isa small wood working hand plane and it would typically have the iron bedded at a lowerangle than some of the other planes. now when installed the bevel on the blade is actuallyfacing up. the block plane is designed to cut in grain and can typically be used withone hand. you can also do a block plane for
old woodworking tools sheffield, rounding or squaring edges. most typicallythe block plane is used for cleaning up components by removing real small amounts of wood sothat it will fit snuggly into where the components are going.
