Beautiful

Bought a hand plane, sharpened it, it's... Fine, but bites way too deep.

Meaning it rips material out? Or the depth of cut is just too deep?

just too deep, needs a bit more tuneing.

Adjusting the depth of cut is kind of a constant thing. I adjust multiple times per board depending on how much I want to take off. It takes some practice to figure out how to deal with slop. If there's no depth wheel, it's even more tricky with tapping
