Fantastic video for me, Colin. Just starting out in woodworking at 69 and have bought an old #4, #5 and a block plane [Stanley and Record] but vary wary of sharpening them until I found this. Marvellous! Thank you so much.
you are a legend Colin. I love your videos they are always clear and concise.
thank you for sharing
Thank you for the info Colin. I am going to make that jig tomorrow first thing, and start sharing my blades, right after I get some new sandpaper. Thanks again for the videos.

This is the best sharpening video I've ever seen. Thanks Colin.👍🏼😉
Thanks, Colin. My chisels are much happier now! :}
I'm glad I can help them be happy ;) Thanks for watching!
Now is the time to sharpening 20 of my old chiesels that I have been using for years.
Thanks for sharing a really good description.
I like the jig, simple, easy, and practical.
Thanks for watching Kevin!
Thank you very much Collin. God bless.
Thank you Colin, this was a very good description. Especially the example of the not-plane blade you gave, was very helpful.
I've gone through a couple of these tutorials now, yours is very easy to understand and down to the nitty-gritty.. (pun.. intended?). Thank you =)
I bought a Tormek. I know it was expensive, but I can sharpen chisels, jointer knives, and planter knives as well as any lathe tools. Best investment I ever used. I can even change the angle of any blade or knives.
You’re amazing and so generous with your knowledge. Thank you!!
Excellent video Colin, very helpful thanks
thank you very much for sharing this videos, love your explanations and ideas!
Thanks for sharing this jig and method. I am just getting into the scary sharp method and was debating with myself weather to buy a jig or just go freehand. Your timely videos gave me a third option that I had not considered. I really enjoy your videos, the information you provide and your professional presentation.
I'm actually at the same place. Do I buy a jig or make one? After seeing this video, I'm going to make one.
Thanks for sharing the different sandpaper grids for sharping and the demo on your new sharping gig Colin.
Thanks Ron
Thanks for this timeless info Colin. I was actually debating whether to buy a jig or make one and then I found your video. I've been a subscriber for a long time; your videos are always very good. Thanks for all of the time you put into them!
Great video, Many thanks for sharing
Well Thanks Collin.
Thanks for that Colin. I've been using a Mk2 Veritas and still pondered as to why I needed it (the chisel) to be centred and you have explained this quite well here. The problem I still have is the evening up of the tensions otherwise the blade tends to swivel, but I'll get there I guess. Cheers
Great tip! Great video as always
I love the alignment jig. I'll make one
Great stuff. Many thanks
Thank you so much. I would love to learn more from you. May you live long and enjoy working with trees for your lifetime 🙏
GENIUS!!
Great information thank you.
Another great video Colin. Thanks for sharing the trade secrets.
Thanks Dan
nice an simple.....I like it!
I saw a lot of sharping jigs, this one is the easiest and coolest among them,
I like it and i'll make one soon
Thanks
Thanks for your comment
That heat treated glass you've got in your video came out of an ovens door!
I know this because I take apart all kinds of broken things and repurpose whatever it may be I need.
cool idea
Easy little jig to make. Thanks. Subbed.
Thanks Ray!
Great video I'm just finding my feet in the sharpening game and this video has really helped fill in some of the blanks, thanks.
Thanks Andrew
Thanks, Colin, big kudos :)
You're welcome!
Very helpful hints, thanks for sharing
You're Welcome!
Very thorough without getting boring - great video!
Hey Colin thank you for a very useful idea I have gotten a lot of good info and advise from your Videos your one of mine favorites
Thanks Matthew, glad you have had some use from them ... appreciate the feedback
Outstanding video. After watching several videos on this subject I built one like it and it performed perfectly. It is easy to adjust and use, and very precise. It only cost me the price of the butterfly nut ($1.39 for 4) and two 1/4 " screws ($.38) which I embedded in the dowel with epoxy. I used a piece of plywood for a grinding surface and it worked OK. I will be on the lookout for a small plate of glass to complete this set. Truly ingenious in its simplicity and effectiveness.
Thanks Colin- very nice effective and simple homemade system. At our antique shop we would test sharpness by shaving hairs off our arms. After a while we all had hairless arms! Legs next?
lol ... You'll be ready to be pro swimmers soon ;)
Respect from morocco ..ma shaa Allah thats amazing
All the best to you in Morocco
harbor freight has a 10 sheet total variety pack : 220 - 500 - 1000 - 1200 for less than $4
Thank you.
You are welcome!
Nice Jig! Use of markers excellent.

Thanks Charles!
After I sharpen blades I use a piece of leather to strop the blade to polish it and take off any wire edge. If you got a piece of leather or leather belt on to the glass you would keep the same angle and could even strop the back side of the blade.
That's is a great
Good video !!
Thank You!
Wow
First to comment. . .
Wish someone had this system up on a video with this title sooner 😭
Collin ! once again what a great project.... did you ever consider pitching the idea to Lee Valley
good info Colin. what type of spray adhesive do you use please?
Hello Collen, what is the angle measure you use for each tool? i.e. chisels and Plane, thankyou from Mexico!
Simple & brilliant... Many thanks. :-)
You're Welcome!
is 25 degrees the standard for most chisel and plane blades?
As usual a very good tutorial by an homble and skilled wood worker. thank you Colin. And I couldn't still understand who click the thumb down button...bah!?
Thanks for the great comment and Thanks for watching!
How you sharpen timber frame slick
Colin will this work on skew chisels?
Can i use marble? I have a piece of rectangular marble stone, perfect for this
Nice Jig Colin. My question is how to put that little bit of curve in the plane? I believe that is for smoothing. Also, I'm curious, what is the angle of a low angle jack plane? A small change to the jig I'm sure. Thanks so much.
Basically you just put more pressure on one side, then the other until you get that curve. I didn't want to put that info in this video as it's a bit more advanced ... will do that video in the future, some of the more advanced things.
I don't own one of those, but they probably do have a lower angle grind ... sorry, just not sure what that is off the top of my head
The bed angle is 12 degrees. The iron is sharpened at 25 degrees like all other edges.
If you make a notch on the other end you can have a stop for 30 degrees.
I have lot of granite stone, can it be used with different grade sand papaer
What is your source for replacement blades?
Interesting indeed! I wonder why you do not use a stone for sharpening?
Stones are fine, many people use them but they are work too, you need to make sure you keep them flat and you need a few different grits ... I just find the sandpaper system quick and easy, had I been schooled with stones, I would probably be using that system
Sandpaper n glass is cheaper faster n don’t need to be flattened
Question:
When the base of the dowel is below the surface (in that groove) and you set to 30 degrees. Then when it is on the glass (flat) doesn’t that raise the dowel, this changing the angle? Sure, might only be 2-3 degrees depending how you make the V cut...or am I thinking too far into it? Either way, I’m making this in about 30 minutes! Thanks
when he made the jig he calibrated the stop block distance while setting up the jig on a flat surface, and used a block cut at 25 or so degrees. so it should be fairly accurate
Guess I'm missing something- the dowel is recessed in the V in the set up jig but it's not when it's on the glass therefore the angle is not the same. If the jig is set for say 25 deg, when you move to the glass it will be a higher value greater than 25 degrees. What am I missing? Love the jig - thanks!
The degree was already set on the table using the triangle he cut as reference. Then he put into the jig and added the stop block. Watch the previous video on how he made it and it will make sense. Cheers!
Using sandpaper for sharpening is rather expensive in the long run when you have a lot of tools to maintain.
Still think I'd put rollers on either end to prevent wear... slip & go on the sandpaper with the dowel part and you've just changed the angle slightly. Still a slick system though. =)
Sure, you could do that ... lots of options
what degrees do you set it to 30 ?
IIIZiPIII 25°
No micro bevel? Much easier to sharpen with a micro bevel.
I'm gonna make me up one of these Collin.. I can't buy a dowel = Too Cheap, It's garbage night, Lets hope for a wooden broom handle = FREE.. I don't do lathe YET.. My plane irons & chisels thank you Sir!! Scary Sharp..
Hope you have luck finding a broom handle! Thanks for watching
Great video .. very usefull.. However you are making us all dizzy by moving your hands so much
G David Corwin He doesn’t make me dizzy,please don’t speak for all of us.Just for yourself.😎
Great theory, How to not actually sharpen plane blades!
This is really good! A lot of the work is made so simple, definitely reminds me, just in case you didn't already know about it that Woody Hyezmar is giving away his woodworking book! Maybe try go'ogling his latest if you’re lucky.
