you’ve done a good job moulding this channel.

He sure is a fine stropping lad isn't he.

@frattman 9 месяцев назад

I've got a couple dozen of these old molding planes I've acquired, a blessed free day to sharpen them uninterrupted, and now, the knowledge to do it. I love it when things work out like that :)

@michaelm748 8 месяцев назад

I have quite a few combination and molding planes but I have never used them as I have never learned how to sharpen them. THANKS James! You information and instruction, as usual is brilliant.

@andrewcodelka5158 9 месяцев назад

Thanks again, James! One trick I like for these complex molders (got it from Shannon Rogers) is once you have the iron perfectly sharp and profiled, cut the profile into a piece or wood or even mdf. then you take the negative profile that is now cut into the wood and charge it with honing compound and voila, instant custom strop. Since these irons aren't used that often, if you strop them prior to use, you might be able to go a very long time before having to resharpen them - if ever!

@mikesuckling8652 9 месяцев назад

I’ve occasionally used a figure of eight motion when sharpening especially chisels. Very therapeutic

There is nothing like a sharp dressed iron.

@iainmcculloch5807 9 месяцев назад

Looking sharp as always. It's plane to see.

@ronaldwhite1238 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for this video. I was planning on asking about this in the next live I attended.

@XyerDark 9 месяцев назад

I'd say one thing that can be done is to keep a reference of the various profiles by putting some graphite or really anything coloring that can be put on the flat side and then use it as a stamp on some notebook or piece of paper in your toolbox, that way you will always have a point of reference if you think after years of sharpening you have overdone one part.

@DetroitSicilian 9 месяцев назад

So glad you shared this. It is much easier than what I was going to attempt.

@rawr2u190 9 месяцев назад

From the thumbnail, I thought you were gonna build a PC for a sec. Oh this is so interesting, especially the one with the multiple surfaces.

Perfect timing James. Planned to sharpen bei moolding plane today and now I know what to do.

@MCsCreations 9 месяцев назад

Really fantastic tips, James! Thanks a bunch! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

@waynehollard 9 месяцев назад

Excellent timing, today I got my hands on a Stanley No45 with quite a few cutters in need of some tlc, thanks

@ssrattus 9 месяцев назад

A cutting edge video.

@AllanMacMillan 9 месяцев назад

You've got all the details ironed out for this combination of sharpening methods.

@justplanebob105 9 месяцев назад

I've watch your videos and many others but sharpening my spoon gouges are enough to cause an anxiety attack. Oddly enough, when I sharpened all my curved No. 45 irons, I had no problems with anxiety at all. Go figure. I really like the different methods you show. Thanks so much.

Thank you James!

@michaelgreen429 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for another great video.

@LicheLordofUndead 9 месяцев назад

I like learning how to do sharpening even if I don't have that tool yet, I like the idea of creating a profile in the more complex blades and using lapping compound

@thomasalton2804 9 месяцев назад

Thanks. Now I understand how these irons are sharpened.

@orellinvvardengra6775 9 месяцев назад

As soon as you had mentioned the folks that use power tools for sharpening my buddy popped into my head. Me and him have different views on things but not in the way of butting heads. He will say "Hey, you should get this power tool it will makes x faster" I give him the little reminder that my space is limited and I am not particularly fond of making a lot of noise.

@JohnGonzalezFL 9 месяцев назад

The timing of this video could not be better for me… I just picked up a Stanley 45 from CIHI and was wondering about how to sharpen the cutters. Thanks for such a great channel!

Anyone else's OCD playing up because he didn't actually use the molding plane 😮

@lydiarol7892 9 месяцев назад

Thanks James, someone gave me a litter of (30) moulding planes and I am fixing them a pair at the time. Sharpening is not my superpower but maybe this will help.

@magicworldbyjorg 9 месяцев назад

,a cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you……

@johnford7847 9 месяцев назад

Excellent video. But it makes me realize that the Shakers had the right idea - no ornate trim. :) Thank you.

@dpmeyer4867 9 месяцев назад

thanks

@Fusion_Woodworking 9 месяцев назад

Sharpen before use, less stressful.

@Orxenhorf 9 месяцев назад

With the half-round or round-over cutters you can run them along the edge of a board then use that same board to wrap your sandpaper around. They're also the cutters you're more likely to use and need to sharpen more often.

@paco_vazquez 9 месяцев назад

@makenchips 9 месяцев назад

If you put shipping tape on the back of your sandpaper it will last 10 times longer doing the sharpening is he did always do it dry! Don't forget to clean your paper off when you're done you can use it over and over and over!

@Rocketninja200 9 месяцев назад

Great video as always. Question.... Can raised panels be made with a combination plane?

@WoodByWrightHowTo 9 месяцев назад

Sure. It is not the easiest but the 55 has irons setup for it.

@ovewalter 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for a informativ video! I have a old moulding plane with a notch in the egg and need to grind about one milimeter to get rid of that. But how do I keep the profile right? It is easy to remove to much in some areas.

@WoodByWrightHowTo 9 месяцев назад

It is not easy at all for that you would basically end up reprofiling it. The answer to that is to extend the iron out of the mouth and mark it with a sharpie to match the shape of the wooden body. And then you grind it back to that sharpie mark.

@tatehogan5685 9 месяцев назад

How do you maintain your strops? I find myself getting a bunch of built up compound that then comes off in chunks leaving bare spots on the leather. Hoping your keen intellect will help me sharpen my skills...

@WoodByWrightHowTo 9 месяцев назад

I use a card scraper every so often to scrape off the compound and then apply new.

@Kar0n 9 месяцев назад

I use a Japanese diamond cone file to sharpen my bread knife. I would use this method for plane irons

@Kliest3 9 месяцев назад

Recently picked up a stanley 45 from an antique store. Would a burnishing rod work similar to the sandpaper on a dowel for the coves?

@WoodByWrightHowTo 9 месяцев назад

Sure. Put the sand paper on that and go to town.

@JackFright 9 месяцев назад

Thanks, James. This is helpful. Would a 50 be better for making picture frames or should I chase down a set of the wooden moulding planes when I get into that?

@WoodByWrightHowTo 9 месяцев назад

80% of the work I do a 50 is all you need.

@JackFright 9 месяцев назад

@@WoodByWrightHowTo Okay, thanks. I'll put that on the list. Plenty of things to grab before it :D

@nicholascook9584 9 месяцев назад

Would it be possible to use a file the help with the sharpening process if they are very fine

@WoodByWrightHowTo 9 месяцев назад

Some of them are soft enough you can use a file but you need to be careful not to take off too much material. File takes a lot off very fast.

@robertberger8642 9 месяцев назад

Hm. James, I thought you were a bigger fan of wave-shaped sharpeners?

@WoodByWrightHowTo 9 месяцев назад

I like them for standard gouges but they are very few where this actually fits them well.

@pettere8429 9 месяцев назад

Would getting the moulding plane soft enough to sharpen with a file make sense?

@WoodByWrightHowTo 9 месяцев назад

Some of them are.

I hear what you are saying about 'power tools' -- but I tried a hard felt wheel with polishing compound for honing my chisels, plane irons, etc -- I still have a DMT plate, but ... if I have electricity, I go straight from the coarse DMT plate to the polishing compound. Shaving sharp, every time, in under a minute.
