Default advancing hand plane blade to keep shaving wood

"Jack" wrote in message ...
I don't work with very hard wood, but it sounds like it is slipping to me.
If it were dulling, then advancing the blade wouldn't help.


I pulled the blade tonight and it will no longer shave arm hairs.
Definely has dulled, but I will try again after I rehone the blade and
when I advance it the second time I will remove the blade to test
again.

I also picked up a flat foot for the dial indicator to check blade
position.
