Record 05C Plane Review By: I.Ball
Category: Old Jack Planes
Extra Info: What is a Jack Plane? Jack Plane Videos
Manufacturer: Record
Plane Type: Jack
Model No: 05C
The Record jack plane number 05 C is exactly the same as the Record 05
with one difference; the sole of the 05 C plane has a corrugated sole.
The corrugated sole consists of a series of machined parallel semi-circular
grooves along the length of the sole.
The idea of the corrugated sole was born on the basis that some work
results in a suction forming between the wood and the sole of a flat
soled plane.
Having a plane with grooves on the sole lets a little
air in between the grooves which in turn reduces any resistance.
This suction/resistance/friction can also be further removed by regularly
applying a lubricant to the sole.
See the Record 05 plane review
for general details about this plane.
