Sorry, our agreement with Woodcraft restricts us from shipping WoodRiver Planes to the U.S.
I own and recommend WoodRiver V3 planes. These planes are based on the reliable Stanley Bedrock design, are very well made, and have an excellent price point making them a "BEST VALUE."
All of our Woodriver bench planes receive our Cosman preparation service so they are100% ready to use out of the box. See prep service below for description of what we do.
The jointer plane (also known as a "try" plane) is used to straighten the edges of boards in the operation known as jointing and it can also be used to flatten the face of a board. Its long length is designed to 'ride over' the undulations of an uneven surface, skimming off the peaks, gradually creating a flat surface.
