Planing Second Surface Bar

This video is of the finishing the second bar that was begun in the "Planing two Surface Bars" video. The bar will be about 1.10" x 2.50" with a 45 degree angle cut on one side. It will be cut into short lengths of between 10" and 14" and used to scrape things like lathe cross slides.. The bar is cut to thickness with two 0.06" deep cuts at a feed rate of 60 thousandths. I have included a close up shot of the tool, but it is out of focus, which I apologize for. However thought it was still worthwhile to include. (I cannot see that tiny screen on the camera and so I just trust that all is well.) After the roughing cuts, a flat-tool is used on the three surfaces. Finally, the 45 degree angle is cut. I decided to try a different tack than the previous video. In this one I used two passes with a 45 degree tool fed horizontally, each pass at a feed rate of 0.015". It seems clear now that I could have doubled the feed rate to save some time. As it was, it took about the same amount of time as the bar in the previous video, mostly due to the need to take two finishing passes with the head at 45 degrees.
