I just looked at these at Lowe's. $35. I picked it up and wow, noticed how heavy it was. That impressed me. I may get one.
I’ve been waiting on a review regarding this new plane. I’ve only ever used Stanley and bedrock.
I just bought the same plane from Amazon, and it's a little brother the 101 amazing value for the price! I have Lee Neilson 102 in the Stanley 60 and 1/2 to compare, too! Well, I'll tell you what, talk it out of the packaging. In my case, the box adjusted the blade. I went to town, and it took very nice shavings right out of the box. These two planes for under $50 are a steal in my book. especially for the 101 save 115 versus an LN. But of course, you have to get over the orange what overtime it'll grow on you
Thanks for the video
I don't know I'm mine removable throat butts right up against the blade amount of backlash isn't much more than what's on my lie Nielsen number 101. The Machining on this was excellent took mine out of the box put it to the wood and started making chips didn't even sharpen the blade animated excellent chips . Excellent value for the money
I have been enjoying mine.
Great vid! I bought the same block plane from Lowes but didn't try it yet.... Was wondering if you had to flatten the sole of the plane or was it completely flat?
