The plow plane is the last plane in the Joinery plane series to join the shoulder, dado, side rebate and moving fillister planes - which are used for doing complex and accurate furniture joinery with planes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe Plough Plane is engineered to cut a precise groove in long grain, with a set measurement of up to 42mm (1.21\/32\") from an edge and a maximum depth of 16mm (5\/8\"). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe fence arm features a built-in scale in both imperial and metric measurements. When placing an order for the Plough Plane, please specify your preferred measurement type for the fence arm setup. Your nominated scale will be positioned on the top of the fence for easy reading; however, you can read the alternate scale from the underside of the fence if required. The scale is calibrated to measure from the side of the wood to the left side of the grove being formed. This is the same for any size blade. The photo shows the metric scale with 1mm increments and a larger mark every 5mm.   The imperial scale is in 1\/32\" increments with a larger mark every 1\/4\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe Plow plane fence arms operate independently, allowing you to easily set the fence perfectly parallel to the plane body. A plow plane will not function well unless the fence is set perfectly parallel. The fence arms allow for the fence to be set from 0 to 42mm (1.21\/32\").   The fence arm has a nicely knurled Knob that allows for easy adjustment. This feature makes for very efficient and accurate adjustment of fence position, making it a joy to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adjustable depth stop allows the user to set an accurate depth from 0 to 16 mm (0 to 5\/8\") using a ruler. The depth stop is moved by a nicely knurled knob on the top of the plane body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe curved shape on the Plow fence is perfectly positioned to allow pressure from the 4 fingers on your left hand to hold the fence firmly against the wood surface. Holding the fence correctly is essential for accurate groves made by the plow plane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe Plow\/Plough Plane is equipped with a standard ¼” or 6mm blade. Additional sizes are available for separate purchase: 4mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, and 16mm, or in imperial measurements: 1\/8”, 3\/16”, 5\/16”, 3\/8”, ½”, and 5\/8”. Blades in other specific sizes can be custom-ordered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe last photo shows the refinements of this plane for efficient and accurate joinery. You will notice the blade sides are relieved by a few degrees which prevents to blade jamming in the grove particularly as the grove gets deeper. Irrespective of the blade width in use, the left side of the blade sits firmly against the depth stop foot, which is slightly relieved, to ensure the correct amount of blade extends past the skate on both sides. This is particularly important for the 1\/8\" blade as the skate is just slightly less in width. This design also allows for the accurate alignment of the fence scale during the making process. These refinements make this plow plane unlike any on the market, and a pleasure to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe plane will come with full setup instructions - covering setting and removing the blade, setting the fence, setting the depth, cutting the groove and sharpening. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrice for a gidgee plow plane with one blade is $1530.
