Getting to grips with the rebate plane.

... a plain and simple woody - which is a highly effective and productive tool.

I know - I recommended them to you years ago, but you said wooden planes were too hard to adjust. IIRC scrubs were a pointless "fashion" too.

Ha! I'll see your fenceless rebate plane and raise you a hammer and chisel! (Oh, yes!) -

Thats' odd he doesn't seem to know anything about the ordinary woody, which was the plane of choice for most - judging by the vast numbers of them available 2nd hand for next to nowt, and knowing how easy they are to use.
As I said - the fillister plane or the Veritas et al look such good ideas, but when push come to shove they won't cut the mustard!
He's partly right about ignoring the nicker but it can be used as a built-in marking gauge - to be retracted after marking but always set spot on. just in case

Try watching the video. He uses a plain skew rebate plane to clean up the long-grain rebate.

Rightho (didn't watch it - boreing!)
If he knows how to use a skew rebate he doesn't need the fancy ones.
