Tools and Hardware Reviews of Stanley 12-904 9-3/4-Inch Contractor Grade Smooth Bottom Bench PlaneCustomer Review: Better smoother plane than most others. Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this great little plane after ruling out some over priced used, abused & neglected planes. Plastic handles are a big plus moisture changes should not cause them to loosen. The special frog screw makes adjustment easy & accurate. My planes sole is machined or ground perfectly flat. I have not sanded mine to a mirror finish yet. I might just to reduce friction.
I did remove the clear coat from the 1" blade above the bevel using acetone prior to sharpening otherwise clear coat will clog sandpaper or stone used to sharpen. I did try a mico bevel as instructed in the manual & didnt like the performance. A single razor sharp bevel performed / pushed like a dream when working on a flat 12" x 8" OAK board that was cupped slightly. This was done of course after using the contractor grade jack plane with plastic handles.
