VERITAS Block Plane PM-V11®
5/

<p>Standard block plane 20°. For heavier cuts with the grain. Bevel angle 25°. Results in a normal cutting angle of 45°.</p>
<p>PM-V11 Steel</p>
<p>PM-V11 steel is made from a new, powder metallurgy steel alloy. With its ultra-fine and homogeneous material structure and extreme hardness (HRC 61-63), this steel has double the edge-retention capacity of A2 steel. The extremely hard-wearing blades allow a razor-sharp edge and are highly durable even at a bevel angle of less than 20°. All blades come with a 2° microbevel and can be sharpened on conventional waterstones.</p>
<p>Compact all-round plane for fine shavings. The mouth opening can be adjusted according to the application, using the configurable shoe (for removing thick or thin shavings). The indentations in the sides make it easier to guide this handy plane accurately. Central setscrew for blade depth and lateral adjustment. Please note: The plane is supplied in two parts (plane body and blade).</p>
<p>Veritas Planes</p>
<p>The corporate philosophy of Canadian tool manufacturer Veritas aims to develop new adjustment mechanisms and enhance historic plane design. With bodies made of stress-relieved spheroidal cast iron, these tools are highly resistant to cracking and distortion. Their soles are perfectly plane and trued at right angles to the sides. Their thick blades of high-strength A2 steel are hardened to 60-62 HRC and additionally subjected to a special low-temperature process to achieve a finer grain. Veritas planes are optionally available with PM-V11 blades. (The Custom series models are equipped with PM-V11 blades as standard). Two setscrews on the sides constrain the blade laterally, keeping it in place regardless of the type of stress applied. Unless otherwise stated, the blade is angled at 45°. With their material combination of finely-ground or black-coated cast iron bodies, polished brass setscrews and beautiful torrefied maple handles, these planes are also pleasing to the eye</p>

Secondly, we tested Platinum BLEACHED Dewaxed and Decolored Shellac for the protection of furniture and musical instruments. Its transparency and ability to harden quickly provide long-term protection against wear and tear.

Finally, we appreciated the versatility of Platinum BLEACHED Dewaxed and Decolored Shellac. This product can be used not only for the preparation of varnishes and lacquers but also for the creation of craft and decorative objects, such as frames or boxes.

<h2 class="MsoNormal"><span>Amber for the preparation of oil paints</span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The <strong>Amber Colophony</strong> is prepared by exposing Amber to a short-term temperature which occurs in vacuum, coupled with the simultaneous separation of the gaseous and liquid elimination products, results in the formation of a particularly high-quality rosin which is free from extraneous substances and is particularly suitable for the production of oil varnishes. </span><span lang="it" xml:lang="it">The reaction takes place at 300-450 Celsius.</span></p>
<h3 class="MsoNormal"><span lang="it" xml:lang="it">It is above all indicated for the production of high quality varnishes in lutherie</span></h3>
<h3>Our evaluation on the use of <strong style="font-size:11px;">amber Colophony</strong></h3>
<p><span style="font-size:11px;">At </span><strong style="font-size:11px;">Grandi Liutai</strong><span style="font-size:11px;">, we have </span><strong style="font-size:11px;">evaluated the use</strong><span style="font-size:11px;"> of</span><strong style="font-size:11px;"> amber Colophony</strong><span style="font-size:11px;"> and found that its main function is to confer greater resistance and hardness to the paint, while also improving its adhesion. However, the use of </span><strong style="font-size:11px;">amber Colophony</strong><span style="font-size:11px;"> in the preparation of oil paints presents some unique characteristics. Firstly, it is necessary to have a reliable source of high-quality amber, as its purity and properties can vary significantly. We have found that the processing of </span><strong style="font-size:11px;">amber Colophony</strong><span style="font-size:11px;"> can be complicated and require the use of specialized equipment. Despite these disadvantages, we have seen that the use of pyrolyzed amber can bring numerous advantages in the preparation of high-quality oil paints. Paints containing pyrolyzed amber have greater wear resistance, adhesion, and durability over traditional oil paints. In addition, </span><strong style="font-size:11px;">amber Colophony</strong><span style="font-size:11px;"> can improve the transparency and brightness of the paint, giving paintings a more vibrant and brilliant appearance. In summary, Grandi Liutai is satisfied with the use of </span><strong style="font-size:11px;">amber Colophony</strong><span style="font-size:11px;"> in the preparation of oil paints, which may require some attention and expertise but can lead to extremely satisfying results. When used correctly, </span><strong style="font-size:11px;">amber Colophony</strong><span style="font-size:11px;"> can significantly improve the quality and durability of oil paints, giving paintings a more vibrant, brilliant, and long-lasting appearance.</span></p>

Grandi Liutai Italiani,5/ 5<p>This set of ISI SHARP chisels is a solid basic equipment for every woodworker. The carbon steel blade (T10) is hardened to 61 - 63 HRC. The ash handles are without impact ring, so that the irons can be more comfortably guided by hand or struck with the heel of the hand. Even without an impact ring, the ash handles can withstand light to medium blows with a mallet. The handles have a colorless matte finish and are slightly flattened on two sides to prevent rolling.</p> <p></p> <p>Iron widths in the set: 6, 10, 12, 16, 20, 26 mm</p> <p>Bevel angle 25°</p> <p>Total length, depending on blade width 250 to 270 mm</p> <p>Blade length measured without tang, depending on blade width 97 to 105 mm</p> <p>Handle diameter 29 mm</p> <p>In Original wooden case</p> <p></p> <p>The Patented ISI SHARP:</p> <p>The face of a chisel must be flat in order to make precise wood joints. Most woodworkers are familiar with this fact. However, you may have experienced that it is not so easy to produce or maintain such a precise face on Western chisels.</p> <p></p> <p>The face of a Western chisel is relatively long, usually between 100 and 120 mm. When the entire length of the mirror side is honed on a flat waterstone, it bumps and lifts at the transition to the tang. At this moment, the honing stone has contact with the iron only at the cutting edge and at the tang. This means that the objective of achieving a flat mirror surface is not realized. In practice, therefore, only the part of the face close to the cutting edge is honed. However, it cannot be avoided that the face of the mirror becomes rounded over time, since there is no defined end of the grinding surface towards the tang side. Precise work is therefore only possible to a limited extent.</p> <p></p> <p>Why do Japanese chisels not have this problem? The face of Japanese chisels is short, often only 60 to 70 mm. In addition, due to single or multiple hollow grinding (Ura) of the face of the chisel, the area that has to be removed is considerably reduced. The third and decisive advantage is that the tang is angled with respect to the longitudinal axis of the face of the iron. This means that the sharpening or honing stone only touches the surface of the mirror side, which is limited on all sides. The result is a permanently flat mirror side.</p> <p></p> <p>The basic idea behind the isi sharp chisels is to transfer this advantage of Japanese chisels to Western chisels.</p> <p></p> <p>First of all, the question remains to be answered as to why Japanese chisels are not used instead of Western chisels. The answer: Many Western woodworkers find the Japanese chisels too short. Not everyone likes to get used to the angled handle.</p> <p></p> <p>The face of the isi sharp chisel chisel4 is designed as a flat surface in its part close to the cutting edge up to a length of approx. 70 mm. The novel feature is that the remaining surface is recessed by 0.5 to 0.6 mm up to the tang. This means that the surface to be ground is clearly defined on all 4 sides and reduced to the length of a Japanese chisel. This also means that the result is a permanently flat face of the chisel. This invention originates from Friedrich Kollenrott and is registered as a utility model at the German Patent Office.</p> <p></p>025.312
