    • Good Value
I was just looking for a cheap plane to use as a scrub plane. After a few minutes of trying to set it up I put it back into the box to return it. It's evident there is virtually no quality control on this product. But good thing I gave it another try. I had to grind down the edges of the lateral adjustment knob so it would fit through the blade and allow the blade to seat correctly. The frog was so far back and misaligned it was also obstructing the blade from seating. I think the depth adjustment prong is either partially broken off on mine or the design just sucks because I can't adjust the blade significantly forward with ease.. Well, that's it for the negatives. I was able to get the blade razor sharp, and after finding the right blade depth, this thing ended up being incredibly useful. For $30 bucks with shipping, its the best value hand plane I've tried by far. The blade retained its edge after a heavy amount of use, and for what I'm using it for, it's not imperative that the sole be perfectly flat. I won't try to use it as a smoothing plane, but as a sacrificial all-around scrubbing work-horse it's a great deal. ... show more

    • Temperamental plane that can be made to behave
Full disclosure I am new to hand planing, but I’m relatively handy and quite determined. I needed every ounce of both to make this plane shave. Positives: The plane has a solid, hefty sole. The not negatives but not positives 1. It should probably be illegal to put plastic handles on a bench plane. The handles are solid but not good. The only way I can explain how “off” they feel is to ask you image a Nintendo with wooden controllers. It’s just not “right.” Instead of canceling some vibration as hard wood totes do, I think the hard resin handles on this plane actually amplify vibrations. 2. The iron (blade) is useable once it’s back is flattened (it will absolutely need to be flattened) and the bevel is well honed. Out of box, it’s like shaving wood with a bar of soap. Once flattened and sharpened, it will cut—when it’s in the mood. I have long believed that with cutting tools (hand or powered) sharp fixes (almost) everything. A sharp ironed helped but the “almost” is the operative word here. 3. The sole is not horrible. It’s not flat, but with about an hour of lapping on some 80/400/1000 grit sandpaper, it can be reasonably flattened. It’s not going to be as flat as veritas or a well-tuned type 14 Stanley, but I paid ~$25 for the plane so I could live with reasonably flat as an outcome. The bad but not horrible (that is next): 1. It is temperamental. I can get ~10 passes on a test piece and then mysteriously it stops shaving. There is a lot of play in the forward adjustment that tends to vibrate in/out with multiple passes on a piece of lumber. I have to constantly tweak (not just micro adjustments) as I’m planing and that is not the most joyful experience. Adjustment normally includes tightening and loosening lever cam screw, cap “iron” screw, and fiddling with the lateral adjustment lever to get it to re-engage with wood. 2. The frog is technically adjustable but in reality it’s not. Full back position is the only one that will will let the plane work somewhat consistently. 3. The mouth is not well ground from the factory and a file was needed to make it a bit more useable. The horrible: 1. The cap “iron” (it is really little more than some cheaply pressed pot metal hence the quotes) is basically worthless and needs constant tightening/loosening while planning. The screw (that really should not ever need to be adjusted) has to be adjusted regularly. Worth noting that because the cap “iron” is so poor it affects how the blade and chip breaker seat into the frog. It’s almost never properly seated and takes some jiggling and a light tap from a wooden mallet or the like. (At sole point you will be tempted to “tap” it with a hammer, don’t!) 2. As bad as the cap iron is, the chip breaker caused so many 4 letter adjectives to come out of my mouth that I briefly considered going to mass. It is poorly made, very thin (thus it flexes), poorly ground at the edge, and its nearly impossible to get it to seat close to edge of the iron. My best experience with plane is with chip breaker about 3/32 from the edge of the iron. That may not seem like much but decent planes will easily seat up at 1/16 of inch. That is difference between silky smooth shavings and not. 3. Lateral adjustment lever: Ha might as well not have one. I’ll leave it at that. Overall this plane can be made to behave and take a few shavings but patience are a necessity. For what I paid, I wasn’t expecting much and that is about what I got out of the box. It’s cheap, it needs a serious fettling but it can be made to work. If you have any interest in trying to decide if planing is for you, this might be worth~$25 dollars. In the very near future, this plane will be converted to a scrub plane as that is probably all it will ever be okay at. ... show more

    • Awesome plane after a decent amount of prepping

Review Image by TheHobbyGuy TheHobbyGuy
This plane is a quality product--especially for the price. Like other reviews have stated, you have to understand what to expect out of the plane fresh out of the box. When I took it out of the box it is immediately obvious that the machining is a bit rough--60 or so grit I am guessing. However, even though it was rough things looked relatively flat and was what I expected from the factory. I immediately began prepping the plane to bring it up to higher standards before making use of it in my wood working projects. The first thing I did was I flattened the sole and the sides. Using a 1x1ft granite tile I bought from Home Depot for $5 as a flat surface, I clamped sand paper to it in order to sand the sole and the sides dead flat. I started with 150 grit and for the last hour of sanding used 120 grit. I honestly would recommend going straight to 100 or 120. I have uploaded pictures of the bottom of the plane showing the sanding progress. One photo is after about 1 hour of sanding at 150 grit. You can see the bottom was cupped in the middle and to one side while the rest was hitting the sand paper. The next photo is of the plane all done with sanding and dead flat. It took about 5 hours of sanding in order to get the sole and both sides perfectly flat with no dimples in the surface. This is a bit overkill as you can have a minor amount of cupping without it really affecting your work--but after investing 3.5 hours of sanding I figured why not go all the way? After sanding (5 hours total) I was able to check for square with my Combination square and the results looked great and are included as an image in this review. Last but not least, like any plane iron, its got to be honed. I honed it using grades of sandpaper and eventually making it to my japanese water stones rated at 1000/6000 grit. The blade takes a good edge and seems to keep it as well. Paul Sellers, a well known master woodworker, has a youtube video that shows the process of restoring a plane which can be applied to any new plane as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYyV6IUpsYk After bringing the plane up to spec, you will need to set the plane based on what you would like to do with the plane. Personally I am using this plane as a shooting board plane. So I have mine set very shallow and the sharp blade is an absolute must. This plane performs wonderfully as a shooting plane. Paul sellers has great videos explaining how to set planes as well. The sole is about 2.5x9 inches. The sides, at their highest, are about 1.5 inches. Pros: *Awesome value. *Good machining when it comes to being square. *Works well as a shooting plane Cons: *A TON of work bring it up to spec (-1/2 star) Additional Considerations: Be aware of safety while sanding. You do not want to breath metal dust. Overall: 4.5/5 stars (>=.5 rounds up, <.5 rounds down) => 5 stars If you have any further questions regarding the product in my review please leave a comment below and I will get back to you as soon as possible. ... show more

    • It came to me assembled incorrectly.
I bought mine from the Amazon Warehouse used. It was semi-assembled with the blade bevel down and the chip breaker nut backwards. I just took it apart and reassembled it, aligned the blade, and planed some 3/4" pine for a test. It's OK, needs to be sharpened and tuned but works out of the (beat-up) box. The description from the warehouse was 'used, very good'. It is. ... show more
