Hello friends! In this video I will create a handy and tool from a broken hand plane. This tool will save me a lot of money. I hope you enjoy!
It uses the blade from a hand plane, and turns scrap wood into dowels so you don’t have to buy them. The angle was the hardest to figure out, but I got good results around 6 degrees. The adjustment bolts are there to hone the placement, and once adjusted, it nails the size of the dowels every time.

I'm really enjoying these idea driven pieces like You won't believe what I made out of a 5-liter bottles, rather than the more 'not popular’ videos like Cool idea! Don't throw away pieces of wood! I also enjoy AWESOME DIY IDEA - REBAR AXE My favorite ones include unique idea from old frying pan In case you were wondering this block of text is for SEO so you really don't need to read this. But yeah, got to mention my other stuff like HandCraft, and Men's Craft, and Mr. Inventor so my videos end up in the related section.

    • My grandparents always had a few of the blue cookie tins and 2 had sewing supplies, and the others has more keys than anyone could ever imagine! At least once a week in summer, my grandpa and I would head inside and search thru the tins and he always knew which key he was looking for and he just preferred keeping them there. We had everything from old 61 Chrysler New Yorker keys, dump truck and log truck keys, tractor and tiller and mower keys, shop keys, etc.. he literally had it all!

    • It is both good an bad to have a workshop outside, any tools left out will rust to no avail, and its impossible to keep it clean of dust and leaves. On the other hand you get to see the animals and notice the seasons changing, be around when it gets dark and the insects start to come out and go about their night (usually towards my lights). Every night exactly one hour after the sun goes down an opossum appears out of some hole and starts looking for food.

  • You can use any flat piece of tool steel as the cutter. You can buy a block plane blade separately. There is no need to to take the parts from another functional tool.

    • However, if you have - or find, as I frequently do when tip-scrounging - a damaged / broken plane you can use the blade from that. (Even if it's damaged. Just put a new edge on it.) Better than ditching everything.
