A plane,
used to shave away the surface of timber to get a smooth finish. In Japan,
where most buildings in pre-Meiji architecture were made of wood, a planed
wooden surface with a very fine grain was highly valued. Various types of
wood were selected and left exposed in their natural form. Thus the plane
became an extremely important tool. There are many different varieties and
shapes of planes depending on their use. These included the smoothing plane
*hiraganna •½çî, the
corner-cutting plane *kiwaganna
Ûçî, the side-shaving plane *wakiganna
˜eçî, and the grooving plane *maruganna ŠÛçî. A relatively hard wood such
as white oak shirakashi ”’Š~, or Japanese oak nara “è, is used
for the base of the plane or plane stock, kannadai çî‘ä. The cutting
blade is inserted at an angle of 30-40 degrees into the base. The blade
edge protrudes very slightly from the sole. When planing timber, the plane
is placed on the surface to be worked, pressed down firmly and pulled towards
the body with both hands. The pared off fine shavings kannakuzu
çî‹û, exit from the throat haguchi nŒû of the plane. |
