Kerfing Plane Kit for Stanley No 50 Light Plough Plane

Description: After much testing and redesign to improve functionality and reduce cost, the Loon Lake Tool Works Kerfing Plane Kit for the Stanley No 50 Light Plough Plane is ready! The three components in the kit will convert nearly any Stanley No 50 into a kerfing plane used to prepare lumber for resawing with a rip handsaw. A shallow kerf cut into all four sides of the board will encourage the saw to follow the cut without the need to constantly check on the whereabouts of the saw blade, drastically improving the quality of the cut, while reducing sawing time and effort. To see it in action, check out Chester Spier's excellent video on YouTube. This was done with an early prototype, but the function is the same. https://youtu.be/d-D0JEw0AI8?si=zfMXwp9v3xqNJEWI A new YouTube video was posted by Chris at MosquitoMade. He is one of the early purchasers of this kit and shared his experience here: https://youtu.be/xkj8OKsxK2s?si=KpJppKRejf9Tix06 Absolutely no permanent modifications are required to attach the components to the plane. On later models equipped with the cutter adjustment lever, the lever, screw, and nut must be removed so that the blade sits flat against the body of the plane. Each kit comes with complete instructions to install and adjust the components on your plane. The progressively-toothed rip saw blade slides over the fence rods and is held straight by a stainless steel backing plate. Both pieces are sandwiched between the body of the plane and the sliding section, which uses the original wing nut to hold everything secure. The original fence is used to set the location of the cut on the edge of the board. The new depth stop with a longer rod is used to set the total depth of cut. Note: this purchase is for the three components in the kit only. A plane is not included. You must supply that.
