Building a Kerfing Plane for Easy Resawing by Hand

Finally got around to building a Kerfing Plane. The tool is used to run a kerf around stock to serve as a guide while resawing lumber. The plane is made from Quartersawn Oak and uses the hardware kit from Bad Axe Tool Works. 12 page plans including detailed instruction, templates, and measurements are available on my website.

Another expertly done video by a master. No obnoxious public domain music, just the sound of hand tools cutting wood. This man is true to himself.

Whelp, that only took me 8 months… Glad to be back!

I love your kerfing plane. I am building one right now with a fixed cut thickness for cut for sheets to inlay. But the next thing I think I will build is one with a moveable fence much like yours. Nice design.

Great work! I like that you chose not to play your favorite music on this video. The sound of the work and birdsong

[@ConjuredCraft]

Me: I love these contemplative style of maker videos. I feel so relaxed listening to sounds of wood working and birds in the trees.

Very nice! Found you through Sampson link.

among the best on the internet, silent, competent, thoughtful and deliberate craftsmanship ==> a great pleasure to watch and absorb

Welcome back. I'm happy I'm not the only one waited and concerned you. Please keep going.

[@bencepaul3497]

Nic! come back! We need more of your videos!

[@FireAngelOfLondon]

Great! A woodworking video without music!

[@Heseblesens]

What a great video...no annoying background music just beautiful bird song and the sound of hand tools through wood. Ten thumbs up!

[@martyb3783]

Wow, Beautifully done.

There's a really good use to the kerfing plane. Fill the groove it cuts with beewax or a slightly viscous oil. This way when you start sawing the saw will glide through the cut and remain lubricated throughout the entire board.

Nice workmanship

welcom back, Nic!

Beautiful work. Very nice job on video.

[@donesry2902]

Nicely done! Thank you for sharing.

[@markpope6162]

What a joy to watch you work, with the birdsong in the background. ASMR at its best! Now, I don't need a kerfing plane, but boy, do I want one 🙂

[@10FingersWoodworking]

Awesome. Love the video, and the project.
