Veritas Router Plane Medium
Description
Whether it is trenches, flat bottomed dovetails or anything else where controlled cuts are required, this is the tool for your kit.
Slightly larger than the Veritas small router plane, this tool has the advantage of using the same blades as the regular Veritas router plane, letting you use the complete range of blade sizes we offer. (Not compatible with the inlay cutter head for Veritas router plane.)
It is made of ductile cast iron, making it more impact resistant than typical cast iron that can be brittle. It has precision ground flat sole, and boasts wave washer that holds the blade while it is loosened, this allows controlled depth adjustment.
For general use, the blade may be positioned inboard with the sole encircling it for maximum registration on the workpiece, even when approaching from the side or working an edge. This allows it to bridge recesses, providing great stability even on narrow stock.
The blade can also be used in an outboard configuration, with the blade extending past the body, for bullnose applications. The blade-clamping knob uses a wave washer to hold the blade as it is loosened, for easy, controlled depth adjustment.
An included stainless-steel depth-stop collar locks onto the blade shaft to limit cutting depth to a preset maximum. The plane can make cuts up to 1" deep with the depth stop installed or up to 1 3/4" deep without it. The ductile cast iron body has been accurately machined and ground flat.
The blade can be set externally, so it faces backwards so it can get into corners so the blade is not limited by the footprint of the plane. A 25mm depth of cut can be achieved with the stop collar fitted, and 44mm if this is removed.
Being mid-sized at 85mm wide and 76mm high, it is small enough to work well in narrow timbers and tight spaces.
