The WoodRiver V3 Bench Planes are the perfect addition to every woodworker’s shop. These Planes give you the thrill of cutting, shaping and smoothing wood to create your very own masterpiece. They are based on the classic, time-tested Bedrock design. The Ultimate V3 Set includes four planes - #3, #4, #5 and #6 – each featuring heavy stress relieved ductile iron castings, precise machining and extra thick plane blades.
As with the previous WoodRiver planes, careful machining, thick blades, and ductile iron bodies combine to make these tools high achievers in the home shop, and they’re a breeze to tune up. The feature that makes these planes particularly desirable as smoothers is the Bedrock-style frog adjustment mechanism. This includes a precisely milled ramp that effectively anchors the blade to the sole, reducing chatter for super-smooth cuts. In addition, you can adjust the frog without removing the blade, allowing you to close the plane’s mouth easily to help tame tear-out when planing highly figured woods or other difficult grain
