Hock

[scooby]

Last week I received the Hock plane iron and chipbreaker I ordered for my Bailey 5 1/2. Finally got round to using them today and I have to admit I'm impressed

Had to reduce some softwood doors in height due to thicker carpet. The timber on these wasn't good, reversing grain and a lot of knots Plane was great to use though. Had to stop myself getting carried away and taking too much off the door it was that good <geek>
Felt quite pleased with myself for spending some money wisely for a change :lol:

All together now. A one, two, a one, two, three, four...

Slip slidin' away, slip slidin' a-wayyyy...

I don't sing as well as Alf, but pleased that you're pleased with them :wink:

Go on, you know you've always wanted a nice set of saloon doors

A2 or carbon steel?

Both are extremely good.

Ron is a star!

Carbon steel. I ordered it from fine-tools, without realising if I'd scrolled down the page they also had the A2 irons No harm done though, as I've been impressed with the carbon.

I recently got the hock iron and breaker for my stanley 5 1/2 and I am also impressed, especially by the chip breaker.
