Stanley blokschaaf 1-12-060 3,4 cm bladbreedte zwart

The Stanley Block Planer 1-12-060 is a compact low-angle block plane designed for precision woodworking tasks such as trimming end grain and working on plastic laminates. It has a black lacquer finish, a 3.4 cm (34 mm) wide cutter and a 150 mm base. The plane features an iron inclined at 13° and rectified sole and cheeks to ensure consistent contact with the workpiece.

Advantages

The low-angle cutter and 13° iron orientation enable clean shaving of end grain and thin laminates. Fully adjustable components allow fine tuning of blade depth and alignment. A rectified sole and cheeks improve stability and accuracy during use. Its compact size and black finish make it convenient to handle and resistant to visible wear.

Key specifications

How to use

Set the blade depth and lateral position using the plane's adjustment mechanisms so the cutter projects minimally for fine shavings. Hold the plane with comfortable grip and push along the workpiece with even pressure, maintaining the sole flat against the surface. For end grain and laminates, use light, controlled passes and check progress frequently to avoid removing too much material.

Recommendations

Keep the blade sharp and adjust depth incrementally for best results. Store the plane with the blade retracted or protected to avoid nicks. For precise work, secure the workpiece and make several light passes rather than a single heavy cut.
