Hi All,
I have just started the slippery slope and am amazed by my new diamond and water stones!
What blade angle do you suggest for a #5 jack plane? As the Lee book stated the angle on it is 20 degrees. He suggest 30 to 35 degrees.
I want to use this for removing the bandsaw marks from slabs and rough lumber. The bed angle is 45 degrees.
Do I redo the entire angle at once or can I take it back a little at a time as I sharpen the iron until it is at the new angle? I have the Veritas guide and jig to help set the new bevel.
Thanks
