A couple of carpenters that work with me rely heavily on their block planes - which they use for a variety of jobs from trimming timber end grains to putting shamfers on MDF pelmets. I decided it was time I bought one and on their advice, I bough a vintage stanley no. 220 block plane on eBay - because the old block planes have much better blades than the new ones, which are typically made in China.

So I picked up my block plane for £20 on eBay, and here's the video showing you how I use it.
