-Up Bench Planes Our family of bevel-up bench planes is a functionally effi cient and versatile system of planes. The Veritas low-angle jack, smoother, and all have 12° beds with a bevel-up blade confi guration allowing the cutting angle to be varied as needed by altering the blade bevel angle. Blades are all the same size, allowing blades Adjust mouth by loosening front ball knob and sliding forward or of various bevel angles to be easily interchanged between backward. planes for optimum cutting performance. All these planes have fully stress- relieved, ductile cast iron bodies. 12° bed Accurately machined, the soles are ground fl at. They have adjust- Mouth adjustment stop-screw able mouths that can be closed to a narrow slit for fi ne shavings with minimum tear-out or opened for heavier cuts. A stop-screw in the throat adjusts to whatever mouth opening you fi nd ideal for chip breaking and chip clearance. This lets you open the mouth fully for blade removal (for honing) and replacement, yet quickly restores your exact mouth setting. The large wooden front knob and rear handle provide both comfort and excellent control. The A combined feed and B lateral adjustment mechanism makes blade setting easy and accurate.
