If you're not getting that sort of performance from your plane, or if you do, but only sometimes, this hands-on-class will get you there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe class is divided into three parts: in part one, you'll get your handplane tuned up to run true. The second part is sharpening, and Jim will teach you how to sharpen with a wet wheel or with Japanese waterstones. In the last part of the class, you'll get individual coaching as you make actual shavings with your own plane. Jim will also demonstrate basic dimensioning and surfacing techniques and the use of a shooting board. Bring along your misbehaving plane for tuning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTools Needed\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAny handplanes you have\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor your safety, be sure to wear closed toe footwear and remove all jewelry before class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca name=\"moreinfo\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"addinfo\" style=\"background: #E0D7C6;\"\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca data-prev-url=\"http:\/\/www.highlandwoodworking.live\/meetourwoodworkinginstructors.aspx\" href=\"https:\/\/info.highlandwoodworking.live\/meetourwoodworkinginstructors.aspx\"\u003e Meet the Highland Woodworking Instructors \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seminars","offers":[{"title":"Wednesday December 2 2026 5:30pm - 8:30pm","offer_id":52382265409818,"sku":"993912","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0904\/5167\/3370\/files\/handplanebasics-01.jpg?v=1781104031","url":"https:\/\/www.highlandwoodworking.live\/products\/hand-plane-basics-with-jim-dillon","provider":"Highland Woodworking","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
