According to the Eaton County Woodworker, if your irons don't fit in the plow plane, make a new wedge.
That sounds simple, but it is anything but simple.
I have a nice looking wooden plow plane that came with one iron. It was a 1/4".
I purchased additional irons that appear to be the same wedge angle as the one that came with it.
I don't know if the the iron that came with the plane was original. I'm assuming it was not.
I have no way of determining if that is the case.
What is involved with making a new wedge to fit skate and the irons. The wedge looks good and looks like it fits.
The iron will not stay in place when trying to plow a groove.
Should the skate be modified? I don't think it should,
but who knows. It appears to be in good condition.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
