When taking the plunge from either a router or specific molding planes, many questions arise regarding where a person should begin. Whether you are a long time woodworker that knows where his focus lies or a hobbyist that is ready to be inspired, this set of 13 planes is that beginning. The standard starter set includes 5 pairs of hollows and rounds (even sizes 2-10), a pair of snipes bill planes and a 7/8” rabbet.
These planes were chosen because of the versatility created by the continuity of consecutive pairs and the wide range of options that this many will create. This set will allow you to design and produce much of the appropriate molding for pieces ranging from jewelry or spice boxes to moderately sized casework, frames, tables, chairs and beyond. If you tend to do larger casework, the sizes of the hollows & rounds and rabbet areinterchangeable. |
