Hock Shoulder Plane kit

That’s sweet.

I was just looking at these the other day. Have you had much time to use it yet? I’m wondering if it’s really practical to use or just more of a novely to have? Thanks.

Aaron…I finished it on saturday, so I haven’t had much practical use as yet. I did try it out on a scrap board to do some rabbetting, cleaning out a dado and trimming a tenon….with a sharp blade this works great, I see no drawbacks to it thus far.

I intend to use it wherever a shoulder plane would typically be used. I’ve used a rabbet plane for the same purposes in the past, but it is too wide for some applications and more aggressive than I’d like. This plane seems to be more of a finishing/fitting tool, which is what I was looking for.

Very sweet looking plane. I’m just going to have to get out more. I have never been to a woodworking store much less one of these woodworking shows. Guess it must be like a kid in a candy store, I can’t wait
