How to sharpen a plane blade

You just bought a plane but have no idea how to sharpen it. Reading descriptions about frogs, cap irons, chip breakers, and stones mean nothing to you because you don't know what they are or what they look like. You may not even know what a plane is or why you need one except everyone says you do so you grabbed a cheap one at Harbor Freight. This is where well-made videos shine in showing how to do something, and I think Rob did an excellent job here.

A quick hint if you want to embed a YouTube video in a post. You only need to paste the YouTube video URL into your post (see above), preferably on a line by itself. The forum will recognize it as a video and embed it in your post automatically.  It will also do this with video URLs from Vimeo and many other sites. Use the Preview button before posting to verify this.
