Lie Nielsen Scrub Plane No 40 1/2

Lie Nielsen Scrub Plane No 40 1/2

Originally employed as the first line of attack in the commercial workshop the machine thicknesser has largely replaced this plane to take timber quickly down to the required thickness from the sawn board. Designed to take heavy roughing scalloped cuts with its 75mm(3") radius edge, the blade is exceptionally thick to cope with the work without chatter. This plane will remove wood at a rapid rate making it invaluable in fitting architectural fittings and fixtures and renovation work; the cut can simulate adze marks or produce an interesting textured surface. When the job doesn’t go right you can work out a lot of frustration using one of these. The No. 40 ½ is supplied with cast ductile iron body, bronze lever cap and frog, cryogenically treated blade (massive to eliminate chatter) with cherry handles. Length: 260mm(10 ¼") Blade: 38mm(1 ½") wide x 4.8mm(") thick Radius on cutting edge: 75mm(3") Weight: 1.33kg(2.9lbs)
