long. The jointer is from 20 to Is
inches long and is used to straighten
surfaces. Being quite long. it will
only cut on the high spots. thereby
gradually bringing an uneven surface
TO one that is true. The smooth plane
is or 10 inches long and used only
for smoothing surfaces. Being very
short Ii can be used on irregular sur
faces that are not necessary to be
perfectly fiat. but which should be
smooth. The block plane is designed
for use on end grain, that is. at right
angles to the general direction Of the
grain.
The construction OF the jack. jointer
and smooth planes is very much the
same. the variation being in the
lengths. The sectional view In the
drawing shows all the parts in posi-
ton, and the smaller parts are shown
separately. Study the drawing thor
oughly and note the relation of the
parts to each other.
The plane iron and the plane iron
cap (when placed together being called
the double plane ironl. are the most
essential parts of the tool. The ad-
justment of these two with reference
10 each other is very important The
plane iron cap is sometimes called the
chip breaker, for that is what it is
designed to do. IF it Is set with its
edge too far from the edge of the

soon enough and the result Is rough
cut. For ordinary work. the plane
iron cap should be set one-sixteenth of
an inch from the edge Of the plane
iron. For cross grained wood. the dis
lance should be less. as the closer the
edge Of the cap iron is to the edge Of
the plane iron. the smoother will be
tho cut. The cap screw holds the two
parts together in the position desired.
The lever cap holds the plane iron
in position in the plane proper. FIX
anime this part Of the tool carefully
and note the cam action when the
small lever Is forced down into posi-
fion. The lever cap screw regulates
the amount Of pressure the cam exerts
on the plane iron. If action Of the
cam Is too loose. the cap screw should
be turned in. IT, however. It is turned
too far. the cam will operate very
hard. oftentimes being broken out OF
its place in the other parts Of the lever
cap.
Turning the adjusting nut forces
the plane iron in or out according TO
the amount Of shaving II Is desired to
