Great Great Great video . I dont think your videos can get any better . They are all equally as good as the others & i believe i can speak for the other fans thats what we appreciate among other things. Your the Man brother keep up the great work
Great video. I don't personally have a 50 but I do have a 45 with these irons. I find that if I get the blades razor sharp tear out isn't much of an issue. I find a shallow cut and sharp irons beneficial, especially when you encounter a change of grain direction eg: around a knot etc. Just my experience of course.
That’s a fair point. I was able to get clean lines on my first one but my practice piece for the video showed that perhaps some additional honing was in order
Fun project, thanks for sharing. You used the sliding section with the 1/8th, but I thought blades that small required the other bolt. Is that not the case for beading?
Correct. The small blade attachment is required for the two smallest plough (plow?) irons but not for the smallest beading iron since it’s just wide enough to be held in place by the center skate
@@justplanefun Thank you for confirming that! Graham Blackburn explained in a video that the when traditional wooden plough planes came to America they kept the British spelling, but when Stanley started making the 45 et. al, the American plow spelling took over. Probably more than you wanted to know, but an interesting fact!
great video, thanks! i got a #50 recently and bought a depthstop and cutters from you. you sent me a long depthstop(that's all you had iirc), what's the difference in use? also the long depthstop is not parallel to the skate, is that an issue?
I have a no 50 that came with a 1/8 and 3/16 straight, non beading cutter. But theyre to narrow and the plane wont grip them. Am I missing a part or is there some other trick to using them? possible using another cutter like a shim? thanks.

Man the more I watch videos on combo planes, especially the 50, the more I want to hunt one down even though I’m good with the 45. Will there be a video for the 45’s hollow and rounds bases?
Did you replaye your No. 50?I am considering doing so to mu #45, which is a mess. I know the collectors will wince at the idea, but mine is a user and I woild like to renew the plating, which is worn away in many places.
I was fortunate enough to acquire this one already looking this way. I still haven’t decided if I’m going to keep it or not though. I have a nice no45 and a nice 55
