The Veritas®Small Plow Plane is a joinery plane, perfect for cutting grooves,

such as used for drawer and box bottoms, cabinet backs, and frame-and-panel

construction. It is also capable of cutting small rabbets (grooves with one

open side).

The ductile cast iron body is accurately machined with a 45° blade bed.

The plane comes with a 1/4"wide lapped A2 tool steel blade. The fence

has been sculpted to ﬁt the hand for comfort and proper registration of the

plane to the workpiece.

No tools are required for any of the settings – blade installation, fence or

depth stop. The large brass knobs (with locking collets) make setting the

fence fast and easy.

Blade Installation

Caution: Be aware that the blade is sharp; careless handling can

result in serious injury.

To install a blade, back off the lever cap

knob and the blade guide knob. Slide

the blade (bevel down) into position

on the machined bed such that the slot

at the top engages the disc on the blade

adjustment knob. Turn the blade guide

knob in until it just contacts the side

of the blade. (This will ensure that the

blade is positioned against the machined

bed side and properly aligned with the

skate.) Lightly clamp the blade with the

lever cap knob.

Blade Sharpening

The plow plane blades come with the face lapped and are ground with

a 35° bevel. Since the blade is installed bevel down, the cutting angle is

determined by the bed angle, in this case, 45°. Additional sharpening need

only involve honing a small micro-bevel.

Cutting Grooves

The small plow plane can control the width (A), depth (B) and position (C)

of a groove. Groove width is determined by the blade used; groove depth,

by the depth stop setting; and groove position, by the fence setting.

Depth of Cut

The depth of cut is the amount of material that is removed with each pass

of the plane, typically in the range from 0.005"to 0.020", depending on

the hardness of the wood being cut. Flip the plane upside down and sight

down the bottom of the skate to see how far the blade is protruding. Adjust

accordingly, tighten the lever cap knob, and take a test cut in a piece of

scrap wood to conﬁrm setting.

Setting the Depth Stop

The depth of the groove is determined by the depth stop setting. To set the

depth stop, loosen the depth stop knob, slide the depth stop to the desired

position, and retighten the knob. Maximum groove depth: 1/2".

When cutting a groove, continue making passes with the plane until

the depth stop contacts the workpiece and the blade is no longer

cutting material.

Setting the Fence

The position of the groove (i.e.,

the distance from the edge of

the workpiece to the groove) is

determined by the fence setting.

Loosen the two fence locking

knobs and slide the fence until

the distance from the face of the

fence to the outside edge of the

blade is equal to the required

groove position. Retighten the

fence knobs. Maximum distance

of 13/8"when using the 1/4"blade.

Cutting Small Rabbets

When using the small plow plane

for cutting small rabbets, the outer

edge of the blade is recessed in the

pocket in the face of the fence and

the width of the rabbet is determined

by the distance from the fence to the

inner edge of the blade. As such,

the resultant rabbet is narrower than

the width of the blade (e.g., the 1/4"

blade yields a rabbet approximately

7/32"wide). As with cutting grooves,

the depth is controlled by the depth

stop setting.

Auxiliary Fence

For cutting a groove in the edge of a wider board, you can add a larger

auxiliary fence to better register the plane to the workpiece. Simply make

a wooden fence, as plain or fancy as you wish, and attach it using wood

screws through the holes in the existing fence. Be sure to use screws that are

not so long that they break through the working face of the wooden fence.

Cutting Beads

Note: A 1/16" quirk is cut on either side of

each bead.

1. Install the beading blade in the plane as

you would a standard blade, with the depth

of cut determined by the blade projection

past the bottom edge of the skate.

2. Position the fence to locate the bead where

desired on the workpiece. For an edge

bead where you do not want the 1/16"quirk,

position the fence tangent to the bead.

3. Set the depth stop such that the top of the

resulting bead is just below the surface of

the workpiece, as shown in Figure 8.

Care and Maintenance

The body of this plane is ductile cast iron and comes treated with rust

preventative. Remove this using a rag dampened with mineral spirits. Clean

all machined surfaces.

We recommend that you initially, then periodically, apply a light coat of

silicone-free paste wax to seal out moisture and prevent rusting (as well as

act as a lubricant for smoother planing). Wipe off any wood dust from the

surfaces that you will be waxing, apply a light wax coating, let dry, then

buff with a clean soft cloth. At the same time, the solvents in the wax will

remove any harmful oils left from your ﬁngers that can lead to corrosion.

Note: Since the face of the fence and the bottom of the depth stop will come

in contact with the workpiece, it is important to keep these parts coated

with paste wax to prevent marring the workpiece.

If storage conditions are damp or humid, the plane should, in addition to

the treatment outlined above, be wrapped in a cloth or stored in a plane

sack. This precaution will also guard against dings and scratches.
