Hand Tool Woodworking / Shoulder Plane problems

« on: February 24, 2012, 04:50:55 pm »

I am having an incredibly hard time getting my Stanley No 92 shoulder plane blades square.  I own a T7. The problem is the shoulder plane has zero tolerance for out of square blades since the blade runs flush with the sides of the plane body. I am using the newest jig for chisel/planes that is supposed to set them straight automatically. I also have searched this forum for an answer while i have many solutions that have worked for others none have worked for me. I am truing the stone prior to doing this also. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have not been able to use my new shoulder plane yet as i wanted to sharpen it prior to first use then after i did the blade was not square anymore.
