You were right with "tote" for the handle. The front knob though, on infills, is known as the "bun" or sometimes "cushion" (as with the case for panel planes and jointers). As for the lever cap, it was more commonly known as just "lever" or "lever with screw" (as found in the old catalogs). Even though it has no cam, as in a Stanley type plane, it still acts as a lever as it pivots on a central screw or pin, which acts as the fulcrum.<BR/><BR/>Jarvis.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390270285708735717.post-49018777618598159502008-04-24T01:46:00.000-05:002008-04-24T01:46:00.000-05:00JameelWould it be called a "screw cap"?CheersPhill...Jameel<BR/>Would it be called a "screw cap"?<BR/>Cheers<BR/>PhillyPhillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053965967319875654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390270285708735717.post-40378743393029742372008-04-16T07:10:00.000-05:002008-04-16T07:10:00.000-05:00Ethan,Thanks!

The intructions clearly state that he shoots for dead square on these, but sometimes there is a slight deviation, and when there is, plane the infill to fit. I actually did this on the practice infill by taking a couple strokes towards the top (up against the shoulder) with a shoulder plane, then feathering that 4-thou or so shoulder left by the shoulder plane out to nothing at the bottom, thus tapering the infill. It's out by about 6 thou, so it's not a big deal in my view to make the infill fit accurately.<BR/><BR/>Thanks carpenter. No adjuster on this one. So when it's all done, it will be hammer time. Don't get that confused with MC Hammer. :-)Jameelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06217450631969033723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390270285708735717.post-37433341538403334512008-04-14T12:56:00.000-05:002008-04-14T12:56:00.000-05:00Looks like a nice project, and a handy little plan...Looks like a nice project, and a handy little plane-to-come!

I've never seen one of these overstuffed.<BR/><BR/>Oh - and please post what Ron's response to the 'taper top-to-bottom is. I would be inclined to 'spread' the top just a bit to fit, but Ron uses pretty thick sidewall material so I'm not at all sure...raneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15409107115039020169noreply@blogger.com
