Well, I finished my Krenov-style wooden hand plane and used what some said about the blunt chisel to widen the mouth. The plane cuts nicely; but I have a problem. I suppose I didn't widen the mouth enough because after just about every stroke, shavings get stuck in the mouth. My understanding is that a narrow mouth is good to keep pressure ahead of the cut to prevent tear out, but I have this clogging problem. O.K so I can widen the mouth a bit. But then it's hard to go back. Can you give me some insight about how much is enough? (I suppose I could just keep widening until it stops clogging.)
