BugBear calculated the correct ( or original ) radius of a scrub plane
blade to be 2 1/2 inches.
Thank you, thank you, sir! I have been wanting that piece of
information ever since I started using the scrub plane I got from Steve
Knight.
The plane cuts as well as you could ask for, but I have always thought
that the radius was too tight. I just went out and checked it. It is
ground to a one inch radius.
I did not change the radius because I did not know what to change it
to. Now that I know, I will regrind it.
Thanks again for a good piece of galoot detective work.
