    After one of his side-kicks has mentioned "heading them off at the pass" - Slim Pickens shoots the offending side-kick in the foot and says:

    Clinton1,

    2nd photo:

    Flattens of this surface is critical; especially the contact area with blade at the bottom end. Be aware, don’t remove excessively in this area.

    Both:

    Perfect contact at two different flat surfaces (at frog screw area and frog tip / plane body) requires precession engineering; so it wouldn’t happen here .

    Folded Al foil under frog tip will improve its seating, you may want to check it out.


    Good luck.

    Theva

    Sorry mate, I don't know what that means. Are you saying that if I try to get this flat at the two areas, and both to each other, - that it won't happen with me trying at home??

    Clinton1,

    1) "wouldn't happen here" - refers to Stanley planes & their workmanship.

    2) "Perfect contact at two different flat surfaces" refers to the ares marked red in attached drawing (from Patrick's site). These two contact surfaces need to be flat & parallel for the frog & adjusting mechanism to work properly.

    Sorry about the confusion.

    Cheers,
    Theva
