Primus Rabbet Plane by E.C. Emmerich |
|
The Primus line of wooden planes by E.C. Emmerich is steeped in the Continental European woodworking tradition and enhanced with some of the advances you need in a modern workshop. These wooden planes work wood in the time honored way that no machine can approach. The Primus Rabbet Plane is easy to set and a pleasure to use. It incorporates the following features: - Adjustable mouth size by sliding a section of the front sole which is firmly secured by a screw head on top of the plane body.
- Spring loaded clamp that secures the blade more firmly and prevents backlash. Spring pressure can be adjusted with the knob at the back of the plane.
- Precision control of the cutting depth through the depth adjustment wheel.
Features a 11" long hornbeam body with a premium lignum vitae sole. The 1 3/16" (30mm) wide iron is hardened to Rc 61, is bedded at 50 degres and includes a chip braker. Made in Germany.

E.C. Emmerich
This famous tool company traces it's roots back to 1852 when master craftsman, Friedrich-Wilhelm Emmerich, founded E.C.E. in Remscheid Germany. Back in those days, most cabinet makers made their own tools. Friedrich made such fine planes that his colleagues offered to buy them for their own use. Soon the founder and his son Max, had to leave their small workroom and build a plant to meet the demand for their planes. Today, E.C.E. is still owned and run by the Emmerich family of craftsmen in the same town.
