I'm thinking of buying a good plane.
I've not used a plane in about 10 years. I want some recomendations for a reasonably priced plane. I was first thinking about a stanley plane, but all these numbers and types of plane are a bit confusing. I just want a general purpose plane (if there is such a thing). Also, looking on the price of thes on amazon, they're in the region of £50+ Draper ones are cheaper, any good? Wickes do one for £15 and one for £20, are these completely useless. I'd probably also need a good sharpenning stone and guide to sharpen it, and my chiesels. What about a power plane. Would it be a good alternative to a hand plane or is it a completely different tool for a different job. Thanks. |
