Lie-Nielsen No. 7 Jointer Plane

Lie-Nielsen's collection of bench planes is the most complete currently in production, covering the gamut from the No. 8 Jointer to the irresistible little No. 1. Nos. 1 & 2 are fully usable planes, though their tiny size and historical rarity makes them as much collector's items as working tools.

Each of these hand planes features meticulous construction, low-tolerance machining and Bed Rock style body and frog design. Soles and sides are milled flat within less than .002" maximum deviation, and the finish is so smooth that these planes are nearly friction-free. Note that No. 3 & No. 4 Smooth Planes are available in your choice of ductile iron or silicon bronze body castings. Nos. 4-1/2, 5, 5-1/2, 6, 7 & 8 are cast only in unbreakable ductile iron. Frogs on all models are cast in bronze. Bed Rock castings, both sole and side rails, are considerably heavier than those of ordinary planes, and the frog is radically more stable and more adjustable. Throat opening can be adjusted without removing the irons, and the iron remains fully supported no matter how small an opening you set. Irons are over 1/8" thick, providing extraordinarily smooth cutting action. Heavy irons, stable frogs and tiny throat openings combine to allow planing performance that's simply impossible with other planes; you can plane reversed grain, quilted or fiddleback figured timbers, and even knots with no tearout, no chatter, and no loss of control at all. Lie-Nielsen's polished bronze lever caps and custom cherry handles perfectly complement the quality of these beautiful tools.
