Bench Dog Router Plane with Fence, Open Throat

A router plane is the ideal hand tool for cutting shallow mortises for hinges, inlay, intarsia, dados, grooves, or wherever else a precise depth is required. Loosely based on an early Stanley model, this version features a fine screw feed for micro-adjustable depth control and a square blade shaft that won't rotate under planing forces. The blade may also be reversed to face the back of the plane if you need to get into a corner. A removable fence is included for repeatable dados and rabbets. This model is an open throat design, which provides better visibility in front of the blade, particularly important when cutting right up to the margins of an inlay or hinge mortise.

Features:

• Includes blade with a 9.5mm (3/8'') square bevel
• Heavy ductile cast iron body weighs 2.25 lbs.
• Solid sapele wooden knobs
