Learn a Better Way

  • More than 70 minutes of step-by-step instruction
  • Get the planes you really need
  • Detailed sharpening instruction
  • Tune each plane to perform
  • Flatten rough stock
  • Plane perfect edges

While bench planes are the most fundamental handplanes in your shop, they are also the most vexing. After years of historical research and practical bench experience, Editor Christopher Schwarz has found a way to simplify the bench plane system so you can think for yourself when it comes to how to choose, set up and use these tools.

After viewing this DVD you'll know how to select the right size plane for your work. You'll know how to sharpen and set it up so it does the job at hand. And you'll learn how to use the plane so you make perfectly flat and gleaming panels (with the minimum amount of effort).

This DVD doesn't teach a new idiosyncratic way to work with bench planes. Instead Schwarz explains how all the systems work so you can immediately see their strengths and weaknesses and exploit them so you'll do better work.
