Record 08C Plane Review By: I.Ball
Category: Old Jointer Planes
Extra Info: What is a Jointer Plane? Jointer Plane Videos
Manufacturer: Record
Plane Type: Jointer
Model No: 08C
The Record jointer plane number 08C model is identical to the
Record 08 plane
with the difference being the sole of the 08C is corrugated; a series
of parallel grooves running the length of the sole.
The 'C' in the model number '08C' 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.

"Just stumbled across your website and an absolute treasure trove of information.
I was recently given an old Stanley 110 block plane and wanted to know more about it.
Your website told me everything I needed to know.
But there is so much more to read. I forsee me spending a lot of time just reading
page after page. I can appreciate how much time this will have taken to put together.
I just wanted to let you know that your hard work is appreciated."
