Yes!

Thanks for the warning. I actually bought pre boiled to avoid that danger, I also left the rags outside, spreadout to dry out before binning. You never know! Thanks for the comment!

Yes that would have looked good! thanks for the comment.

It was you have a great memory!

Thanks for the comment!

Welcome aboard! Thanks alot, glad you enjoyed it! Much appreciated!

Thanks!

Thanks for that! Much appreciated! I was supprised how well it worked, it's now in the kitchen ready for the next batch of beans!

Thanks for that and for the comment! Much appreciated!

Hey, Thanks much, I took a gamble with the yellow but I think it just about worked out! Glad you enjoyed! I am planning a Record 84 vice next.

Hey thanks for the comment! Much appreciated, glad you enjoyed it!

Hi there, yes pretty sure it was the vinegar, I left it too long probably, over 24 hours, I think a couple of hours would have been ok, but it just ate the metal by the time I went back to it the next day! I will have another go at it, but check each hour. Thanks for the comment!

Right now, even ScoutCrafter is saying 'DANG THAT'S SHINEY'!!!

It is! its already scared off a few nuts!

@@AndyM. Ha! Thanks now that would be cool!

Thanks for the comment! Glad to help, good luck!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for that! Much appreciated 👍

Thanks, much appreciated 👍, and thanks for the comment!

Thanks, give it a go, just take your time, and work on each piece, no real specialist tools needed, I only really had the polisher, and that really only speeds up the final polish. Its basically time! Enjoy the process, and your Dad's plane can easily come out as good!

@@OldSchoolResto thanks, I’ve got some polishing discs for my air sander, so I might have to give it a polish too.

Thanks for the watch bro!

Thanks, and thanks for the comment!

You got that right! Thanks for the comment!

@@georgebrown8312 thanks, much appreciated! Thanks for the watch and the comment!

Thanks for the watch and the comment. I did give it another go after assembly, but didn't film it.

Thanks, and thanks for the comment and the watch!

Hey thanks for the comment! It really is a pleasure to use, it feels totally solid and has a real weight to it, planes lovely, it almost glides along! Glad you enjoyed the video too! I am probably going to be doing my record vice from around 1953 next. I use it all the time but it needs new jaws and some soft jaws I can clip in, or easily swap out. And some kind of base so I can move it on the bench somehow.

Hi There, thanks! The inside of the plane body, and the frog got three coats of boiled linseed oil, that dries and forms a layer which will prevent rust, it's like a vey thin resin when it dries, you can feel it on there, it will need coating again, eventually. The outside of the plane body has loads of polishing compound still on it which again will protect from rust. When that wears off with use I will rub paste wax into it every 6 months or so, that will keep it rust free. The crack on the knob, excellent question! I went round and round with that! The issue was it was so dry, like a bone, so it needed soaking in oil, and that expands the wood, so if I filled it first I was worried that the wood would expand and the filler wouldn't and so it might crack all the way though. So I soaked it first, then my concern was that the filler wouldn't adhere to the wood with the oil on, and I thought the wood may contract again. In the end I went for no filler so the it can expand and contract with no issue. With it oiled it does now feel more stable! Thanks for the watch and the question!

@@OldSchoolResto I hate the original glossy japanning, and I've finished all my restored planes in matte black paint. With these post-1950 beech handles, you should definitely try making your own out of nicer wood! I've made some out of walnut, and while it's not as fancy as the original rosewood, it's still much nicer than the beech they started using after WWII.

Yes, the rosewood are so nice, but I can never find any at reasonable prices! That's not a bad idea, I might have a go at making my own next time, thanks!

The oil significantly reduced the crack and the knob looks to be perfectly usable. I like this restoration; sympathetic and no OCD replacement of any slightly worn part. This is a restoration I could attempt with my modest collection of tools.

@@brians654 thanks Brian! That is exactly what I am going for with this channel, trying to do some nice sympathetic Restorations to get things usable, and nice looking without going overboard, and with pretty much standard tools. Thanks again!

Thanks do much for the comment! Glad you liked it!

Thanks for the watch and the comment, what more would you like to see in my next video?

@@Valera1983 Hey nice idea! thanks!

@@UwannawatchHey thanks for the watch and the comment! I wanted to try and do something a little different, and the cammo matches the origin story! Thanks again.

Hey thanks for the comment! I have some more video in the pipe line and will be trying out a few differnt techniques soon! Thanks again

Hey there. Thanks so much for the nice comment, much appreciated! I did think about going further on the wood, but it was so dry I was worried it was going to crack before I got the oil on. I agree on the half size, it gives it a real weight it's a chunky plane! And you're right I should have captured faceplaning! I will record it on the next one, thanks again!

I envy you, you have a powder coating setup :) I recently spray-painted the metal parts of a transitional plane, and the paint's already coming off :(

I was really suprised how well it worked!

@@raymondcarter thanks!

@@seemacarter hey thanks! I wanted to do something a bit different with this one!
