“Woodcraft is not a very good company. I ordered a 5 1/2 jack plane in July but cancelled when I saw the ship date was September (no day specified). I never order tools with an open ended ship date. Shopped around and in August got another email offering 15% off so I checked out the website and saw the estimated ship date was September 1. September 1 rolls around and no order status update or info about 3 months of Rob Cosman hands on workshop. On the 4th, I called for an update and they told me the estimated ship date was now October 3. I cancelled the order and called customer care. Barbara was very understanding and helpful. She found one at their corporate store in VA and said they will ship it today. We will see.”

“I own a lie Nielsen #41/2 and a #7, I needed something in between so I went for the wood river 51/2. This is my new favorite plane. It's the perfect weight, not too heavy to push through the work but heavy enough to stay engaged in the wood without having to bulldog down on the work. The fit and finish is excellent I was taking full length full width full length wispy thin silky smooth shavings within 40 minutes of opening the box with some blade honing of just a micro bevel and using the ruler trick on the flat of the blade. Buy this plane you won't be sorry”
