Frequently Bought Together
Axminster Workshop planes represent great value for home or professional use; whether in a workshop or out on site. The Axminster Workshop No.5 Bedrock Jack Plane is a versatile, all-purpose hand plane that is good to put to rough sawn timber to begin sizing and smoothing, as well as truing up long edges or levelling wide boards. It is long enough to produce a flat surface, and at the same time not too heavy.
The blade is cryogenically treated high carbon, offering excellent edge retention. It comes with 25° bevel. The blade only requires honing before use (putting a 30° micro bevel on the edge can be done in less than a minute).
The plane's main body is ductile grey iron with a flat ground sole. The weight of the body allows the plane to glide smoothly, even through rough timber. It features an adjustable frog allowing you to close the plane's mouth for finer work. The 'Y' level that helps control the depth is an investment casting for better engagement with the blade. The lateral blade control lever is the traditional 'disc' type rather than simple piece bent metal. The plane has a lever cap iron and solid brass adjusting nut. The handle is made from hardwood.
The bedrock design ensures for maximum stability and support for the cutting iron, resulting in less blade chatter. There is a full contact area between the body and the frog. Without removal of the iron, the frog can be adjusted to widen or narrow the mouth of the plane. This ensures for easier and more accurate adjustment to the mouth opening without damaging the cutting iron, for increased control and fine-tuning.
Axminster Workshop planes are made to a good standard and quality and only require a minimum of initial preparation or fettling before your first thin shaving. The sole of the No.5 is 350mm long, the blade is 50mm (2") wide.
