Product Review, IBC Blade and Chipbreaker for Stanley Bench Planes
Product Review, IBC Blade and Chipbreaker for Stanley Bench Planes
We have had these for sale since 2009 and folks love them. The blade is .140″ thick, the chip breaker is .125″ so together there is more than a 1/4″ of steel! They work great and convert an old Stanley into a premium plane. https://robcosman.com/collections/planes/products/ibc-rob-cosman-revival-plane-blade-set-2-inches

Would this work the same way on Miller’s falls planes?
Yeah for 100 bucks the bunch of greedy feckers. Rob "Cashman" the greedy little guy. 🤣😂🤣😜
Awesome Rob! Thanks for sharing.
Never had a problem with Stanley blades. I will try it though. 😀
I have been looking at these… Will the mouth need to be filed open? I think you meant a 606? I believe a number 6 only referred to the Bailey planes.
i wonder if this set will fit my old national #7C. the plane is in great condition and works well except for some iron chatter
The information this man is giving ia priceless to say the least. His love and respect for not only the woodworking craft but people, surpasses any I know. Simply watch and listen carefully. He will take you where you need to be. Take it from this old salty woodworker, if you will just do nothing but only imitate his procedures, listen to his suggestions you will be on the right track to being a top notch woodworker and human being.
Ha, if y’all don’t like your Stanley blades can I have them?
Thank you. Every time I have a question you have a video! I bought a beautiful number 7 (type 9 I think patient 1902) from a collector yesterday but the blade like you said is thin. I go to your pg and I again I find a solution. Ty!
Just ordered the set for my #6, thanks Rob.
This sold me on the IBC plane iron
Can we get these in the UK?
The biggest problem is you have to back out the lever plate screw to accommodate the thicker blade an chip breaker. You have to back the as screw out too far to die this and need a longer screw. Haven’t found a source for a
Longer screw. The IBC blades are nice if you can get them to work.
For the Stanley No. 8 IBC got the chip Breaker to short by 1/4 inches. Distance from chip breaker edge to the rectangular slot should be 4 inches not 3.75 inches.
I’ve had no problem with the thickness of the old blades. The chip breakers on the other hand……
Mr. Cosman…have you seen the review on IBC plane irons from Wood by Wright How 2? Very interesting results.
Yep I did this for my 4 and a half Stanley and never looked back……I had the this original blade and breaker and it was a PITA to use……now with the upgrade it is my go to plane for many planing tasks……highly recommend it!!
