When you first showed us this, I thought it would be used to make a kerf for sawing - like a kerfing plane but only for ripping. Interesting tool. Thanks for sharing.

I doubt I’ll ever use these older tools in woodworking but I find your content to be awesome! I’m glad you have this passion because I’ve learned so much since I started following. Thank you so much for learning me.

One thing immediately came to my mind. If the teeth had the spacing offset correctly then a fewer number of passes would be required. Now it seemed that all the teeth hit the same spots every revolution. If i had that kind of plane I’d probably try and make a new cutting wheel to test that.

Also it struck me that a version of this tool might be perfect for cutting cardboard with. Maybe I’ll give it a shot making one.

I've not used the ripping plane, but I have used the slitting cutter on the 45. I used it for making a deeper mark on wood before resawing it, and I have used it to make blanks for my Bridge City Tool Works Chopstick Maker. For drawer bottoms I either make a rabbet or just shave the bottom down with a regular bench plane.

I would love to see some small boxes, or trays. Watching your videos are always good for morale. Thanks

Watched your short and glad to see a longer format discussing and demonstrating this! Very cool tool! Thanks for sharing James! Now, get Rex to have Compass Rose offer a it as a kit! 😁

The japanese have a tool called a wari-kebiki, roughly translates to "breaking marking gauge". It's a marking gauge with a beefier blade than a regular kebiki, and usually with a rabbet. you score it with a bunch of swipes and then tap it with a hammer to get shooting-board ready cuts. Note that it's meant only for soft woods like hinoki and paulowina, and would probably not work on anything with janka 600+.

Always enjoy when you show the archaic and unusual. Never seen on and don't know how useful even for a guy who specializes in hand hooks. I would definitely like to play with one but if it didn't fall into my lap, I probably would have passed. Nice find.

I noticed Rex’s Sawyer’s Hooks on your benchtop. Nice. I feel part of a real community. Kudos.

A very interesting tool. Like you I had not seen this before. I wonder why this did not become more common.

[devinteske]

I don’t have a Kinnings patent ripping plane, but I do have a 3-arm kerfing plane, and that’s how I rip my drawer bottoms. The Kinnings is nice because when the bottom is slid into a groove, the slight imperfections are hidden.

[uwyphi]

been doing a 1/12 doll house this year and i wouldn't have mind using this tool for ripping the parts

[johnkelley]

This was interesting to see the plane work and how well it does work. Thanks for sharing this.

[johnfreiler]

I would love to see thin wood trays: would you do thin wood mitered dovetail for the tray? That would be a fascinating (and difficult) project.

[PeanutsDadForever]

I think you’re onto something here. Old tool explanations are a go!

[daveallen]

I look forward to a 16 episode long series, where each episode lasts 60 minutes (ish).

In that time you get to make a one third scale French letter writing desk. Most of the desk can be made from thin woods. Exceptions being the legs.

I shall then start to call you “The new Norm”.

i just acquired a Stanley 45 with all the original pieces, in great condition, with the box.

[geoffb]

Thats a sorta nice idea. I have fun making wooden tools ie planes, cabinet scrapers, router plane, spokes shave etc
I shouldn't be too hard to make one
.the iron could be sourced from an old hand saw blade and if the cutters are irregularly spaced second pass will always guarantee a good cut.
I'm heading out to the shed, , as we speak, , ,

[Meataumaton]

I've definitely seen the same thing done with those fancy-pants Japanese bladed marking gauges and this seems like a really good tool for that purpose. Would also be interested to see if it can do any other tasks

[kencarlile]

I've never realized that the 45/55 had a slitting cutter that would be used separately from another iron.
