ABSTRACT:
A plane adapted to cut hinge recesses in a door edge is disclosed. The plane housing has a base having a cutout. A rotary cutter, rotatable relative to the base, is mounted from the base and in alignment with the cutout. Means are provided for selectively adjusting the position of the cutter relative to the base. Limiting means are provided for preventing the cutter from cutting across the entire width of an underlying door edge so that the cutter will leave an uncut strip of door edge after a hinge recess is cut in the door edge by the plane. The uncut strip serves to limit lateral movement of the door hinge when it is mounted in the hinge recess cut by the plane. Means are provided for rotating the cutter, such means comprising a first pulley on the cutter, a second pulley, a tensioned belt engaging both pulleys and drive means for the second pulley. Means are additionally provided for maintaining the relative distance between the pulleys substantially constant when the cutter position is selectively adjusted. Means are also provided for limiting travel of the plane on the door edge.
