    Default using hollows and rounds

    hi,

    im new to the forum so first i would like to say hi.


    i am a little in the dark on what hollows and rounds can do. i understand what they do, but unsure about all the possibilities.

    ok,

    there are moulding planes that can make coves, ogees, beads, and then their are complex planes to make mouldings. Can h and r's make these same mouldings?

    I guess i want to see what the h and r's can do. I see a lot of 17th 18th and 19th century antique furniture, and i wonder was this moulding made with a h and r or a complex moulding plane.

    Hi Felix

    While I have not made any complex moldings with mine (I have a matched half set of cabinetmakers - 50 degree cutting angle), I have used them several times to repair existing, broken moldings. Something a powered router just could not do in a month of Sundays!

    Regards from Perth
