Making a Knob Without a Lathe for a hand plane
Making a Knob Without a Lathe for a hand plane
We are making a knob for a Stanley 10 1/4 hand plane this knob needs to be able to lean side to side. though I do have a lathe I decided to show how to do it without a lathe. with an all hand tools workshop, this is fairly easy. for woodworking tools we will mostly use files and rasps as well as a couple carving gouges.

Thank you for sharing
Nice grain pattern. There is the eye of Sauron now.
While watching this, I am thinking about how to make this on a table saw.
Мы не ищем лёгких путей! Что, станков нет ?
Could probably shape one pretty easy with only a jigsaw and sanding bit on a cheap ass dremel. Would cut the time down like crazy too. Regardless- looks good! Wondering how long all this took!
Love watching your process by hand!
I noticed when I was planening a piece of hardwood that the blade had a mirror like shine. That’s. What a 16000 grit or higher gives a blabe.
A. True work of art.outstanding!
Nicely done
I was wondering, since hardwood has fibers that scratch the sole of a bench plane, what is the grit of a piece of hardwood?
were those voice acted effect noises ! ? that earned a subscribe, also i dont think a wooden hitch ball is going to work , but i wanna try out those effects noises out so im totally making one.
Iiiiii shoild have watched this before i finished my latest project. Same thing, zebrawood knob with no lathe. And decades less experience. Great work, it’s beautiful.
I’m so glad I found this! I’m wanting to make some knobs but my stock would require laminating two pieces of thinner boards just like yours and I wasn’t sure if that was a good idea. Now I feel good to go ahead with my plan
Cool bro
is it just me or does he look like jony sins
The dad joke at the end sealed the deal. Thumbs up dude.
I often do this kind of work without power tools, of which I own very few. When I show the finished item to friends, they sometimes marvel when they learn I did it all by hand and say I must have unusual woodworking skills. (I do have unusual woodworking skills. Unusually bad woodworking skills.) You can do everything power tools do with hand tools. How the heck do you think they did all that stuff before Industrial Revolution?? It just takes longer, and you have to watch closely your shapes and dimensions, the grain of the wood, etc., while you work.
Slow down, pay attention, and you’re there. Yeah, it takes a month to make something I could have ripped out in a few hours with power tools. But it’s totally doable. Fabulous job, by the way. And you used my favourite finish, too.
I only have one plane and the handle has shrunk and cracked whilst still in its original box. It’s a Stanley plane my lovely wife bought for me about 30 years ago (maybe longer) I want to start a wood working hobby now that I am retired. Any ideas why it shrunk and how I can make a new one? Subbed and liked. By the way, where can I get a file that makes those noises? Lol.
Excellent video and process
What is the paint stuff tell me please 🙏
cool stuff, I subbed you, badda bing
Wow I would never have thought one could get that kind of result with only rasps and files. Spectacular. I know it took longer than 12:39. What was the timeline to make the knob?
@ 8:57 *wHy aRe yoU uSinG a FiLe foR tHAT???*
😁 But really, I like the look of the "book matched" bocote(?), the symmetrical grain gives it a cool look. Even though they’re slower, I still love using quality rasps and files to shape things the most, unless of course it needs to be precisely round or cylindrical 😉 Great video
Nice work as usual. Thank you.
"Everything in the shop is just a jig to hold a chisel". Amen! Thank you for another beautiful demonstration!
Ya, Ebay … make thatshit so. $15 vs. 9hrs or $350 on lathe and tools
Was that made out of treated wood
I’m restoring a Stanley 33 transitional plane. The last piece I need to do is carve a knob for it. I don’t have a lathe so I gave youtube a shot and this is the first video that popped up. Thanks for making this! What did we do before YouTube?
Crazy lookin wood. Love it.
Although nothing to your level of skill, I have amazed myself with shaping things with hand tools and the main things required are patience and attention to detail. However, the one thing in the video I would have completely screwed up was drilling the center hole. I noticed you started at both ends. Is the idea that as long as they are centered on each end, it doesn’t really matter if they meet exactly in the middle? I would have a hard time with that procedure without a lathe or drill press. Love the projects!

Generally never like with music, but yours was just perfect. Thank you !
Just exactly what I needed to see. I have a Stanley #7 that was given to me but has no front knob. Thanks
After a really crappy, stressful day I started to watch this. Between the music and the sound of the rasp, I was dead asleep four minutes in and had to start over when I woke up, much less stressed. I love this kind of video.
Damn i love working with rasps! I dream to one day go buy mine in France, at Liogier
WHY YOU USING A FILE TO HAMMER THINGS!!! J/K lol…
Man I cringed when that awl slipped. I’m so glad that didn’t go through your hand brother! Beautiful handle by the way.
I just want to thank you for making that it’s a work of art you are a true master of your craft
Beautiful work
is the wood james used,zebra wood
Awsome. Question.. What oil did you use there?
Cheers.
I really appropriate how gentle and calm this video is. I feel like im right there with you in meditation and wood working.
How to restore a hand plane. Step one: buy a hand plane.
I HAVE a lathe…so why do I feel the need to make one this way? 😆
Excellent! Just what I was looking for since I don’t have any fancy gear.
I love your videos i learn so much thank you.
Love you sound effect ahahah!
Exquisito trabajo! Excelente decisión en la madera, reconfortante ver el video asta el final!
That last "like" that you got was for the sound-effects when (I’m assuming) something went wrong with recording the audio 😀
Wow! Underfull! Congratulations! Good job! I m from Brazil.
At 2:48 the voice sound effects were amazing lol
