[@OregonChuck]

I’ve watched a lot of plane restoration videos, including one I thought couldn’t be topped. Well, you did it. This is the best plane restore video ever. Congratulations on a job well done and thank you teaching me some great techniques.

[@reborntools]

Glad you liked it!

You turned a Looser into a user! Ah - the feeling of that first cut - it is so great!

[@reborntools]

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@kwerkies9250]

You should lap the sole of the plane only when the plane's assembled.

[@reborntools]

Maybe

Exquisite outcome

[@reborntools]

Thank you!

[@matthiasvanhoorn362]

Very great work! What kind of fluid do you use beginning at minute 2:17 for removing the rust? Best Regards

[@reborntools]

Hi Matthias , It's a white vinegar. I left it soaking for 24 hours. Thanks!

[@matthiasvanhoorn362]

Hi and thank you! I have vingar acid 20%. Do yo think it is strong enough?

[@reborntools]

Yes definitely. Mine was 17%

[@matthiasvanhoorn362]

Great! So I can start the project without heavy chemical and machine equipment . Thanks!

[@calvinbass1839]

Well done! Was the a little chuck on your grinder? Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed day.

[@reborntools]

Thank you. I bought that on ebay, it fits perfectly on a 12.7mm (1/2 inch) bench grinder shaft.

[@nunocorreia75]

Hi. Great work. Can younplease put the link for that chuck, i search on ebay and didnt find it. Thanks

[@bob4390]

Would love to know what you are using for the frog lateral adjustment lever pivot pin????

[@reborntools]

Do you mean the liquid to remove the chrome plating?

[@bob4390]

@@reborntools No, I mean what did you use to re-attach the lateral adjuster?

[@reborntools]

Aaa I used some dome head mild steel rivet. M3 or M4 can't remember exactly.

[@bob4390]

@@reborntools do you remember where you got it? I have a few frogs that I am working on and have been trying to figure out what to use.

[@reborntools]

I bought it from ebay. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/385140502870?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=g4gbkfnlsh6&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QjLTJS7MRzO&var=653022415461&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[@alfredobanuelos4730]

It was a great video to watch. But I have no idea of what you used in terms of the products you used to remove the rust or restore the colors

[@reborntools]

Thanks, for your comment. I used 17% vinegar for rust removal. And normal black paint and gold and copper paint for the rustic looking finish.

[@ureasmith3049]

What kind of paint did you use? Is that home made japanning?

[@reborntools]

Just normal spray paint . No japanning.

[@josearistidessouzasantos9313]

Parabéns

[@reborntools]

Thanks!

A cualquier cosa llamáis RESTAURACION, cuando este video se trata de una limpieza, no ha restaurado ninguna pieza.

[@reborntools]

Really?

[@adamtheroofer3659]

I was gonna comment about some of the tactics and choices but then I saw it was made in England so it’s all good. This is one of the newer style planes and while it’s ok there isn’t much value in it so have at it!

[@reborntools]

England, USA , I don't mind if its a potential restoration..

[@tungsten_carbide]

19th century???! Apart from the date that Stanley bought the Chapman works being a matter of record, chrome plating and aluminium parts weren't exactly common pre-1900 😉

[@reborntools]

Hmm, my resources says 1872-73... I was probably wrong.

[@tungsten_carbide]

@@reborntools FYI the dating timelines for Stanley planes are for those made in the US, they don't apply to those manufactured elsewhere. But even if the plane had been made in the US I don't know how you'd arrive at that very early date based on the features - easiest to see perhaps is this doesn't have the low knob, a key feature of earlier models. Plus there's a raised ring to accept the base of the knob; the introduction date for that is well documented. These, and numerous other details, rule out an early date. Stanley only started making planes in the _late 1930s_ in England, and they can be hard to date accurately. But the aluminium handle nuts and the steel adjusting wheel are a good clue since they were only used fairly briefly, about 10 years. Introduced early 60s and Stanley went back to brass in the early 70s.

[@reborntools]

Thanks for the info. Yes I realised chrome plating is introduced the early 20th century , not before. I changed the title as well.

[@tungsten_carbide]

@@reborntools 👍

[@zebrone4837]

​@@reborntools type 19. 1948-1961. I have a type 19 #3. It's one of my best cutting planes. Good job

[@eudog8108]

Why don’t you identify the chemicals used?

[@reborntools]

In the next one I will...

[@ericmartin8888]

If it is just a video on watching someone restoring a plane it was good, but if it was to show someone how to do it I wasn’t moved. I would like to know the details of what he used, how long, etc. Nothing was provided to that end. Disappointing.

[@reborntools]
