| Customer Reviews: good tool February 4, 2006 Joseph C. Mooney (Christina Lake, BC Canada) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have had better luck with this plane than the other reviewer (who gave it a single star). It takes a little fiddling to adjust the double blades so that the follower takes just a tiny bit more wood than the front one does. Once adjusted it works as advertised - it puts a reasonably smooth edge on your wood. Does not work as well on end grain, but that would be expected of any cutting power or hand tool.
I use it to quickly "break the edge" of things like shelves, boxes, etc.
I have used a router with a comparable size rounding bit (1/16 I think) and must say that this plane leaves an edge that is about as good as the router, without the time and hassle of changing bits, adjusting fences, etc.
Whichever method I use, I follow up with a quick, light sanding, but that's mostly because I'm fussy.
Considering the price of this tool is less than a router bit, I think it's well worth the cost.

I have had two of these "tools". I would rather call them toys, because they are not sturdy enough to actually do any work. I struggled to align and position the blades in such a way as to take off the nice thin shavings that a quality plane would be expected to produce. No matter what I did, the blades would chatter down the work piece resulting in a coarse, pitted edge on anything harder than soft pine. Even the results on pine were sub-par. The wooden body of one of them split during use.
Don't waste your money, get a decent champfer plane or use your router.
