New QS at Workshop Heaven

[Peter Sefton]

I adjust my Veritas BUS, LAJ and BUJ on the fly. With the left hand.

Cheers Pedder

Now I understand, I thought right handed would be very difficult.

Cheers Peter

Thanks Pedder...
Hope my arthritic left thumb holds up!

[studders]

And interesting reading it is too, though the images are a tad on the small side.

I will see if Matthew has any better photos he can send to Charley

Thanks Studders. Would have been better to post it in Hand Tools and then ask Alf to list it in her Hand Tool Review Links.

Cheers :wink:

Great review there Peter...and exactly what I was expecting.

Having sampled my first QS product...the 2 3/8" iron that is now permanently residing in my over 100 year old panel infill....I think I might be getting some more of them as and when the need arises.

What pleased me the most was the speed at which is was possible to hone the edge to a very keen cutting weapon. I had a very hard time with A2 and was expecting the same from the QS but this honed faster than my 01 in my No.7 so I was pleasantly surprised.

Thanks again for the superb review and taking time to write it.

Can anyone say the weight of the QS 62 LA



Cheers.

 

[Benchwayze]

Thanks for the reviews folks.

Seems the plane has proven its mettle, and if I didn't have to fork out a few hundred for a new extension roof, I would buy one. Looks like next month now though.

Where am I going to store these extra blades though Matthew? :mrgreen:

Regards

John.

Great Review and obviously a good plane.

But I think I've been convinced not to buy it. Why? - Well with already a QS 4,5 and 6 I don't think I need it enough although especially as Peter said he wouldn't swop his current no 5.

Would be a lovely present though....

Well, you could always embed them into a couple of protective wooden blocks to keep them snug. You'll need to wedge the blades in, for safety, and they had better have handles...
