Scrub Planes and Jack Planes with single Iron
Scrub Planes: These planes were used before there was machine planing to do the first rough planing of the sawn board. The rear and underside of antique furniture dating from before the industrial revolution will often have on them the marks of the rounded iron of the scrub plane.
Today its usefulness is often overlooked: it helps the later work to go much faster, having taken off the shavings thoroughly and fast from boards or laths with a bow in them, and it will give a much more interesting rustic effect than you get with a mechanical texturing brush, without all the noise and dust. Though the sole is straight, the iron is curved. The cutting angle is 45°. The width of the blade is 33 mm (1-1/4 in.), the length of the body 240 mm (9-1/2 in.). The body is made of red beech.
Jack Planes without chipbreaker: Designed for removing material fast, if a smooth surface is not requested. The blade width of these planes is 48 mm, except the small ECE plane. The blade width of this plane is 39 mm.
