The Veritas ® Small Plow Plane is a joinery plane, perfect for cutting grooves,
such as used for drawer and box bottoms, cabinet backs, and frame-and-panel
construction. It is also capable of cutting small rabbets (grooves with one
open side).
The ductile cast iron body is accurately machined with a 45° blade bed.
The plane comes with a
1
/
4
"
wide lapped A2 tool steel blade. The fence
has been sculpted to fi t the hand for comfort and proper registration of the
plane to the workpiece.
No tools are required for any of the settings – blade installation, fence or
depth stop. The large brass knobs (with locking collets) make setting the
fence fast and easy.
Blade Installation
Caution:
Be aware that the blade is sharp; careless handling can
result in serious injury.
To install a blade, back off the lever cap
knob and the blade guide knob. Slide
the blade (bevel down) into position
on the machined bed such that the slot
at the top engages the disc on the blade
adjustment knob. Turn the blade guide
knob in until it just contacts the side
of the blade. (This will ensure that the
blade is positioned against the machined
bed side and properly aligned with the
skate.) Lightly clamp the blade with the
lever cap knob.
