Default scrub planes - can you convert a jack plane?

Grind to a deep crown, about 1/8 to 1/4". Set the blade depth to 1/16",
and it'll take narrow shavings. Advantage here is when the working edge
segment dulls, nudging the tilt lever exposes sharp iron.


there you goo a good idea. though jack is a bit heavy for a scrub. time to

drill
holes in it to make it move faster (G)

Eek!!! Don't even say that. The image of drilling holes in my LN 5 1/2
will give me nightmares for a week. ;-)


Right. Drill them in your LN 5 1/4.
