Robbery bank
A Jack Plane earlier jointer is a fabricated from wood or metal hand planer for machining wood processing . A distinction is made between short grape benches with a minimum length of 40 to 45 cm and long grape benches, the length of which is usually 60 to 65 cm.
Robbery bank
The Jack Plane is used boards to arbitrate and to add. In particular, it is indispensable for large-area manual processing of boards. Its long length makes it ideal for planing.
In the Anglo-Saxon area, especially in the USA, robbery banks with a metal sole are common. In continental Europe, the plane body is mostly made of beech , with the sole often made of hornbeam , pockwood or other hardwoods . In Asia (Japan, China) robbery benches are made of tropical woods and work, for example, on Japanese planes. For this purpose, handle bars are embedded on the side of the planer body.
The plane irons from Raubänke are equipped with a flap. This is used to break the wood shavings shortly after acceptance and thus achieve a clean surface.
It is true that planing machines that work with a knife shaft are mainly used today for planing boards or glued panels . However, if the cleanliness and precision of the planing is important, many experts still prefer to use a hand plane.
Major manufacturers of robbery banks include a. the companies Ulmia, ECE and Lie Nielsen (USA).
Fugbank
The jointing bench, the actual plane for joining boards, is hardly in use today. With a length of 80 cm, it is the longest bench planer. The Fugbank also differs from the Raubank in that it has a die with a straight blade edge. Rounded edges are not necessary because the joint bench is not used for surfaces.
Since the tasks of the Fugbank today are mostly done with machines, they are practically only available used.
