I wanted to start using hand planes, so I purchased: 4 ½, 3, #7, BU Jack and a few block planes. I’m not sure what to use my Jack plane for since I don’t need it for a smoother or planner. From what I understand one of the nice things about a Jack, is that it can be used for several purposes, including a shooter. So I was wondering if I should set it up with a toothed blade for heavy removal, or if anyone has another suggestion.
Thanks,
Charlie
