Need a video upload

Chinese Tradition Hand tool woodworking? Looking for the videos about making that Jack plane? Used to have it, now it is MIA. Don't care about the talking part, just need the visuals. Have the body for one about ready to go, for a 2" wide iron.

Also, do I just flatten two sides of a dowel for the bar? Have some stock for the wedge ready to cut down, too. Just would like to see where the cuts are, and how he makes them. Might get a new hacksaw blade for this job:eek: but that is what worked the best on the edge plane for me. Do have a couple coping saws as well,

Chisel? Welllllll, I'll make do with what I have on hand. A tool box arrived the other day, with a few handtools inside, stuff from the old shop. Did find a couple almost brand new wood rasps, though:D and they MIGHT come in handy.


Floats? Not really. Might cobble up one IF I need to. Have a supply of old bandsaw blades I can gang 12" long sections into a "float"


So, IF one has the site I can watch??

Right now, I'm working strictly from memory on the layout lines and such. Need to find out which he chops first and such289909Hoping I get these lines drawn right289910Iron is 2" wide. Blank is about 18" long. Iron is in the "rear" third of the blank289911 As for another blank of hardwood289912Might be a tad too big?

Made some progress in the small amount of time I had, yesterday. Then left for my Day Job. 289957Trying to leave the lines as I go.... My "frame saw" isn't the best around, though289958 Might need a new blade in it? Iron looking like it might wind up at 50 degrees for the bedding angle
