    Paul

    If you are getting "pick up," which is unfortunately very common with many Australian hardwoods, you may have to resort to scraping. With the HNT Gordon planes (and probably other wooden body planes) you can reverse the blade and, in the case of Terry's planes, the planing angle is changed from about 55 degrees to 85 degrees depending on which model you are using.

    This works very well but it is harder going so should probably only be used for the final finishing if you can use another method to remove bulk waste. If this becomes an excuse to purchase an HNT Gordon plane, speak to Terry about the best way to go, but probably a HSS blade is adviseable as considerable heat is generated in the scraping action.

    The low angle planes do not seem to be suitable for difficult timbers.

    Regards
    Paul

    For a filler in your epoxy you could use coffee grounds

    approach your local coffee shop for some of their waste

    I wouldn't use a belt sander and 60 grit to take the 1 mm hump out of the top - you'd end up with a 2mm (or deeper) scratchy dip/lake bed in no time with resultant woes in removing such.

    If you're getting this tear out you might need a higher angle plane with a finer mouth and finer cut

    How can you suggest such a thing with all the trouble he had with the router recently? Besides he is a hand tool guy.

    I am happy to help out if you need my help.

    Paul and Nick I am using a 62 degree angle of approach provided by the BuJointer that also has the capacity to close the mouth which is the same as the HnT as per DC http://www.inthewoodshop.com/ToolRev...20Jointer.html

    Pop wood also suggests a similar approach http://www.popularwoodworking.com/ar...plane_tear-out

    which at this point are academic as it is not workin and / or its my limited experience.
