Disapointing,
By Sea Dog (Near St Louis, MO) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Stanley 12-960 1-3/8" x 6" BAILEY Low Angle Block Plane (Misc.)
As a hobbiest woodworker I enjoy trying out all the new gadgets. Of late I've begun to shun some of my power tools in favor of more traditional hand-powered tools and have discovered I feel more like a woodworker than a machinest when using hand tools. Don't misunderstand, that's just me and NOT a negative comment about power tools and those who prefer them.Coming from a Good American Company with a fabulous reputation, this little block plane is quite a disapointment. No hand plane comes ready to use out of the but this one wasn't even in the ball park. The iron was dull and the sole was out of flat in both dimensions. A lengthy (for a new plane) tuning had most of the discrepancies resolved, but the lever assembly refuses to remain tight when in use. I would not recommend this product. |
