Veritas Scraping Plane
Description
Veritas code: 05P29.01
Veritas' scraping plane is the ideal tool for final smoothing - especially when you have to deal with highly figured wood or reversing grain.
With a well-sharpened blade and light cuts you can achieve excellent results with any wood. Tear-out is virtually eliminated with the cutting action of the scraping blade.
The large wooden front knob and rear handle make this plane comfortable to use for extended periods; and the large sole ensures an accurately flattened surface.
The adjustable frog enables you to set blade angles from 0 to 25 degrees; providing fine control of the cutting action.
A feature unique to this plane is an integral thumbscrew that bows the blade; eliminating ridges in the work surface caused by blade corners.
The plane comes with a 0.055inch high carbon steel blade suited to this technique as well as an optional 1/8inch (3.2mm) thick A2 steel blade that suits those who prefer to use an uncambered blade.
Both blade styles are 2-7/8inch (73mm) wide and are hardened to Rc48-51.
