Record Fore Plane - No. 06C


The Verdict
Record 06 C Review By: I.Ball
Category: Old Fore Planes
Extra Info: What is a Fore Plane? How to use a Fore Plane?
Manufacturer: Record
Plane Type: Fore
Model No: 06C
The Record fore plane number 06C model is identical to the
Record 06 plane
with the difference being the sole of the 06C is corrugated; a series
of parallel grooves running the length of the sole.
The 'C' in the model number '06C' stands for 'corrugated'.
The idea behind the corrugated plane is the sole has less friction when
planing, particularly as the board becomes true. The smoothness of the
planing can be improved further by lubricating the sole with oil/wax etc.
