Build quality is great. Much heavier and longer than I expected but that is a hood thing. The ends are very sharp. Bought on sale.
This is an excellent plane which works right out of the box. I used the fence to cut a square edge as well as a 45 degree chamfer and it worked beautifully.
This blade is as good as the original I purchased a decade ago. I own 4 of these saws and only wish some of the other styles where available as a replacement
I bought two kits. One for me to put in my display case and the other for my granddaughter. She is always fascinated with the tools that I own,
Now days I like to display these tools other than use them.
What a totally cool set of small squares. To have a 45* then a 60* matched set is just so smart. I love my BCT collection. Yes! I use every BCT I have. I only use them on my fine woodworking projects. Having tools at this level demands precision and attention to details when using them. They feel so good in my hands. I really need to buy the JMP and every accessory that goes with it. Then I will be at the top of my game.
This block plane is beautiful! I finally got it in the shop today and it was easy to adjust and cutting great without any blade work! You need to get one of these they are awesome!
I am so pleased with my HP-12 PLANER I got to play with it yesterday and oh wow it's everything you could want from a futuristic plane they have pulled out all the stops and now I'm addicted to their tools so saving for the next one and thank you BRIDGE CITY TOOL!
I was so delighted with the quality and value of the HP-8 Plane. The adjustment controls were outstanding. It was just the size of my palm. I promptly ordered another for a friend for his birthday. Mine and two other products are displayed
proudly on the tool rack for easy access/use. Thanks MNC
1- beautifully finished.
2- very accurate.
3- high end quality.
The only thing I need to tell is that why don’t have free shipping for order $100+
Thanks
I have been wanting the CS-12v2 for quite a while and I was definitely not disappointed when I finally ordered one!! This is not the first thing I am reaching for, for the majority of my layouts. It just feels so amazing to hold and use- the finish, feel, and balance are truly perfect. I'm not sure if its just me, but it even seems like the tab that holds the blade is slightly magnetized(?), and the blade does not move / creep as you are tightening it. I absolutely love Bridge City Tools!!!
Accurate, clean and well considered. Comfortable in the hand, the dovetail guide is handy, too. Will definitely buy the other two larger ones. If a smaller one was sold I’d probably buy 2, to be honest.
My second hand plane from bridge city and truly amazing tools! Detail and craftsmanship are top notch! Well worth the money.
Very easily adjustable and holds adjustment well. Works well for thicknessing small bits of wood. A bit smaller than the offerings from Veritas and Lee-Nielsen, but I find it much easier to adjust than either AND it does a better job than the L-N apron plane (I have a lot of experience with L-N, but only a little with the Veritas).
