Exciting News! The Melbourne Tool Company has landed

[Wood Workers Workshop]

We are excited to announce the long-awaited arrival of the Melbourne Tool Company in the UK. Hand tools designed and developed in Australia for woodworkers who appreciate the simplicity of bevel-up planes.

Their Low Angle Planes, hailed for simplicity and functionality, efficiently plane all wood types without faffing around with chip breakers and frogs.
The range also includes spokeshaves, cabinet scraper and router planes.

12 degree bed
The blades are set bevel-up in the milled plane bed at 12 degrees providing you with a very low angle of attack.

M2 High Speed Steel blades
M2 HSS blades have high abrasion resistance which means it will hold a sharp edge much longer than many other steels.

Easy blade adjustment
Easy to adjust, precise depth and lateral blade adjuster. Twist the knurled knob to set the depth of cut.

Adjustable Mouth
The plane mouth is fully adjustable. Twist the front handle knob to release the toe.

Interesting. Nice to see a variety of blades available for the router planes.

I'll have to scratch my low angle plane itch one day but I'm resisting for now

A friend brought me back the small router plane and spokeshave but I haven't used them yet.

Look great, are they physically made in Australia?

Their website says designed in Australia, manufactured in Asia

Start by smoothing/relieving edges (the vid.) - possibly not the best advert.

Not something I usually do but each maker sets up their own kit to their own liking, but as planes get used and edges get nicked on the bench it's something that usually ends up needing doing at some point.

I was planning to come along to the open day so that's another reason to attend.

Great, Clifton and Veritas will be here as well for comparison.
