No, I only deburred when moving from one stone to the next. Is that going to be a big problem?
I just flattened both sides of the chip breaker today. It isn't a mirror finish but I think this made some improvements. It is cutting easier (when it isn't choking)
That is a really informative video! Thanks for the link! I'm astonished how drastic the differences were at such a microscopic scale
It is a cheap plane, they're made in the UK. Though unless I'm mistaken, it is at least one step above the planes you'd find at a big box store.. Perhaps I should buy a replacement iron?
Here is a photo of the shavings I'm getting now. They're better but still not good enough.
Also it is still choking after 10 strokes or so.. Maybe I didn't flatten the chip breaker well enough?
