Veritas code 05P45.02

Also known as a moving fillister; this rabbeting plane cuts quickly and quietly; avoiding the set-up; noise and dust associated with power tools. Like the Stanley #289 that inspired it; it is configured with a blade skewed at a 30 degrees angle to reduce cut resistance; aid in shaving clearance; and help pull the fence tight against the workpiece. Because the blade sits flush with the side of the plane body; corner cuts are clean and accurate. Adjustable in two axes (vertical and horizontal) for depth and projection; the scoring spur sits ahead of the blade and is used to reduce tear-out on cross-grain work. The spur can be recessed for work with the grain. The 7-3/8inch long fence is through-drilled to accept a wooden extension. Double guide rods and a special collet locking system prevent the fence from racking; and the large brass knobs allow fast and easy adjustments without tools. The fence can be positioned to allow a maximum rabbet width of 1-1/2inch. The adjustable shoe controls the depth of cut to a maximum 3/4" deep.

Short 3-1/2" rods are supplied for the fence, with longer 6" rods available (05P45-60).

Supplied with a lapped blade 1/8" thick and just over 1-5/8" wide, with a bevel edge that is about 1-3/4", in A2 steel. The depth-adjustment mechanism is fast and accurate. Set screws along the side allow repeatable blade positioning. The 9-3/4" long ductile cast iron body is machined with a 45° blade bed and weighs 3-1/2 lb.

The plane is available in left- and right-hand versions. You may need only the version that suits your dominant hand, though they are in fact complementary, since having both lets you accommodate any grain direction.
